# Patch and Reboot if Required

![notion image](https://docs.xeox.com/media/2fb8f8579daacbf1.png)

Predefined Programs are already build, for your convenience. It is still possible to edit them however.

The **“Patch and reboot if required”** program asks, using an if-loop, whether a reboot is necessary for the update. If it is a message is displayed indicating that an update is required. An update is performed 5 minutes after the message is displayed. Once the loop is completed, the program searches for and installs missing updates and displays the hardware and software inventory.
