Reboot to complete upgrade process

Within 24-36 hours, you should be prompted to reboot your device to complete the upgrade. You can choose to Reboot Now or to Delay Reboot by selecting an option from the Delay for dropdown menu.

If you do not choose to reboot during your current session, the update will run automatically the next time your device powers up while it is connected to a Michigan Medicine network or via VPN.

After your upgrade is complete, and you have re-started your computer, you can verify that the upgrade was successful.
