Update Windows on a Cal Poly Owned PC

Problem

"I need to upgrade the Windows operating system on my Cal Poly PC."

"I keep getting a pop-up window on my state-owned computer that says I must reactivate Windows. How do I download the license activation key?"

To install Windows upgrades:

Click the Start Menu > Settings.
Click Update & Security.
Click Check online for updates from Microsoft Update.
If there are updates, once they are finished installing, click the Restart now button. Updates will disappear once installed unless a restart is needed.

You may need to run updates more than once, especially if you see the Pending restart message next to the update.
