While the Windows Autopatch default options will meet the majority of the needs for regular users with corporate devices, we understand there are devices that run critical activities and can only receive Windows Updates at specific times. The **Scheduled install** cadence type will prevent forced restarts and interruptions to critical business activities for end users, thereby minimizing disruptions. Upon selecting the **Scheduled install** cadence type, any previously set deadlines and grace periods will be removed. The expectation is that devices would only update and restart according to the time specified.
