Win8 system:
Many people may ignore security patches and upgrades for Windows systems. In fact, this is a very insecure behavior, although these patches may increase your disk space and even affect your ongoing work. However, in order to ensure the security of the system and data, we recommend that you can set up automatic updates to update these upgrades and patches to the system in a timely manner. In the Windows 8 system, Microsoft provides a more user-friendly new system update mechanism, automatic updates take action as much as possible without interfering with users; reduce automatic restart, and make the restart predictable; continue to keep the system updated in a timely manner Sex and safety.
The so-called auto-restart predictability means that the Win8 system will provide a notification when it needs to be restarted when the patch is installed, and inform it to restart it in the next 3 days.
Do not interfere with users, it is also a more humanized embodiment of Win8 system, no longer promptly pop-up prompts you to restart as in the past, but in Win8 system, only when you restart or need to be notified, you will see the prompt.
Next, let's take a look at how Update is used under Win8 system. How should we complete the system update?
Windows update in computer settings
Generally, we are in “ Windows Update can be found in the SuperButton's computer settings. The update here is the default to automatically download and install, you may need to restart the system to perform the configuration after completion. Therefore, we only need to save the current work, once again.
Windows Update under Start Screen
If there is an update notification, we can also see the prompt on the login interface, and will also provide "Update and Restart" on the power notification of the login interface. And “Update and Shutdown” options. Equivalent to the power button prompt under the charms.

Update system through control panel
This is also a more traditional system update method, just open the control panel under Win8 system to find the update. The specific operation is, in the desktop state, open the charm button, click “ control panel & rdquo;, find the Windows update.
Windows Update in Control Panel
For some of the updated schedules, it is also done through the "Change Settings" operation here.
Finding updates in search
The search in Win8 is very smart and powerful, so you can search for the detailed lookups, so if you are more accustomed to starting the screen, or using the charms to find files and programs, then Search will also be the most commonly used feature.
Update.
Application Updates
Here we are mainly talking about the Windows 8 app store, Win8 "Start” There are a lot of tiles on the screen, such as email, photo browsing, audio and video playback, games, etc. Through the app store, we can also download more apps that integrate with Windows 8.
Whether it is the built-in application of Windows 8, or the application you downloaded through the app store, if there is an upgrade, there will be corresponding prompts, we can also log in directly App store to view.
Select the application that needs to be updated, it will be automatically downloaded and installed for you, without our participation, it can be said to be very intimate.
Downloading
A lot of users will think that these systems are constantly updated and patched, which will make them feel very troublesome, but in the Win8 system, the update prompts have been greatly changed. In the past, a window that needs to be restarted will pop up, but now you can only see this message when you shut down. It should be noted that if the restart operation is not performed within the period of more than 3 days, the computer will take an automatic restart operation, but the premise of the implementation will be to ensure that the user data will not be lost. This means that you are not at the computer (the computer is locked), the application is running in the background, there may be unsaved work, Win8 will postpone the automatic restart until the user logs in to the computer next time, and will be reminded to save the task, then provide Warning to perform an automatic restart within 15 minutes
