Update modules for Windows

An endpoint may not update with the most recent product modules for any number of reasons. While the ESET endpoint products will attempt to update on their own, this automation combines the ESET Monitor - Protection Status custom service with the automation policy ESET Task - Update Modules to ensure an update task is sent if an endpoint reports its product modules have not been updated in the specified amount of time.

1.Open the ESET - Service Template you have created in the creating a service template section.

2.In the Details tab next to Service, select ESET Monitor - Protection Status from the drop-down menu and click Add Service.
