	Our [[Windows Patch Management]] automatically installs feature updates when we release them to ~~our supported Windows desktops and Enterprise supported laptops~~. You will receive a notification to install the feature update in the same way that other patches are installed. Please see that page for ~~an example of what the process looks like.~~		Our [[Windows Patch Management]] automatically installs feature updates when we release them to UMIACS-managed devices. You will receive a notification to restart to install the feature update in the same way that other patches are installed. Please see that page for more details.

	Please note that feature updates often have supplemental updates (i.e. security patches) that must install after the feature update itself. This means that in addition to the reboot issued as part of the feature update install process, additional reboots may be required while installing the supplemental updates thereafter. This is by design. You can defer each reboot that is required as specified on our [[Windows Patch Management]] page.
