The Application Modules Update task forces the update of all application modules of the security application installed on a target device. This is a general task for all security applications on all systems. You can find the list of all application modules of the target security application in the About section of the security application.

Select one of the following options to create a new Client Task:

•Click Tasks > Add > Client Task.

•Click Tasks > select the desired task type and click Add > Client Task.

•Click the target device in Computers and select Tasks > New Task.

## Basic

In the Basic section, type basic information about the task, such as a Name and Description (optional). Click Select tags to assign tags.
In the Task drop-down menu, select the task type you want to create and configure. If you have selected a specific task type before creating a new task, Task is pre-selected based on your previous choice. Task (see the list of all Tasks) defines the settings and the behavior for the task.

## Settings

•Clear Update Cache—This option deletes the temporary update files in the cache on the client, and can often be used to repair application module update errors.

## Summary

Review the summary of configured settings and click Finish. The Client Task is now created, and a small window will open:

•Click Create Trigger (recommended) to specify Client Task Targets (computers or groups) and the Trigger.

•If you click Close, you can create a Trigger later—Click the Client Task and select Run on from the drop-down menu.

You can see the progress indicator bar, status icon and details for each created task in Tasks.
