<p>The next BigFix WebUI release is scheduled for <em><b><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">July 27, 2021</span></b></em>. To prepare for this release, please be aware that we are introducing new options which provide more granular control of updates
in the WebUI application.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>As previously communicated, BigFix versions 9.5.16 and 10.0.1 will update the BigFix WebUI automatically whenever new content is available**.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>To allow customers more control of these updates, beginning with BigFix versions 9.5.17 and 10.0.2, automatic update settings for each WebUI channel can be independently set to one of the following options:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ol start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
Automatically install the newest version when it becomes available (default)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
Automatically install the newest version after a specified number of days<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
Turn automatic updates off. Updates must be applied manually using the “Update Now” function<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p>These changes have been introduced to allow the BigFix WebUI to better support the change control process and change windows already in place in your organization.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>A video overview on the process to manage these settings can be found at this link:
<a href="https://youtu.be/i9_qbA0RqTw">https://youtu.be/i9_qbA0RqTw<span class="badge"><span style="color:blue">1</span></span></a><o:p></o:p></p>
