Note:
If you do a silent installation and do not want the workstation to restart auto-
matically, you need to add the parameter
REBOOT=ReallySuppress

Note:
A restart is required. Please note that shutting down the workstation might
only put it to hybrid shutdown, i.e. the workstation is not really restarted at its next
startup. To make sure that the workstation is restarted properly, do one of the fol-
lowing:
● Confirm the prompt to restart your workstation after the update.
● Manually restart the workstation.
● Disable hybrid shutdown in your Windows settings.
You have updated R&S
Trusted
