The Check For Application Update task enforces checking ESET application upgrades (auto-updates) on managed computers:

|  | The supported ESET applications: •ESET Endpoint Antivirus/Security for Windows version 10.1 and later •ESET Server Security for Microsoft Windows Server version 11.0 and later

•If a later version of the ESET application is available, it is downloaded.

•ESET application upgrade requires a computer restart, but not immediately (the restart is not enforced). ESET PROTECT On-Prem administrator can enforce computer upgrade and restart remotely from the Web Console using the Shutdown Computer Client Task with the selected Reboot computer(s) check box.

•The earlier ESET application remains fully functional until the restart. The upgrade takes place after the next computer restart.
