<p> </p> Why doesn't Software Updater install some updates automatically? <p>Software Updater only installs security-related updates automatically. The installation of non-security-related updates and service packs is required to be initiated manually via the <strong>Software updates</strong> tab under the Policy Manager Console. </p> <div>Policy Manager 12 introduces the <strong>Show non-security-related updates</strong> checkbox (under Policy Manager Console > Software tab). If you uncheck the checkbox, the following update types will be hidden: <ul><li>Microsoft security tools </li> <li>Non-security updates </li> <li>Service packs </li> </ul></div> <p><strong>Note:</strong> This checkbox is a Policy Manager Console specific setting. If you change the setting in one Policy Manager Console, it would not affect another Policy Manager Console connected to the same Policy Manager Server. </p>
