# Patch Management

**Reports → Patch Management** shows which Windows updates were installed on your devices in a period, for example to document the patch status of last month.

At the top you pick the **Period**: 7, 30 or 90 days, or your own dates. **Installed by XEOX** switches between the updates XEOX installed and the ones installed some other way, for example by Windows Update itself.

## Installed Updates

One row per update, with its severity, priority, categories and the **Number of devices** it was installed on in the period.

Click the number to see those devices, with the install date and what installed the update. Click a hostname to open the device.
