All District Computers Need to be Updated.

WEDNESDAY WORKSTATION WIND DOWN

Complete the following steps on Wednesdays before you leave & shut down your devices for the night/leave for the day:

**Make sure that you do these steps at least thirty minutes before you leave as the updates/cleaning cache can take up to an hour.

This will likely fix many of the video and sound issues that we have been having! I would wait until you are done with students for today to complete this, as it takes a while and could restart without warning.

Step 1: Search for “update” in the search box at the bottom left of your screen.


Step 2:

Click Check for Updates.


Step 3:

Be sure you’re on the Windows Update page and click on “Check online for updates from Microsoft Update”

Step 4:

A bunch of stuff will begin to download. This took about 15 minutes for me. I was able to still work while things downloaded, but when it was ready to restart, my screen went black without warning then came back on.

Step 5:

At this point, you’ll need to let everything finish installing and your computer will let you know when it needs to restart (or it may just restart automatically).
