Solution
ESET PROTECT On-Prem 9.0 and ESET PROTECT 3.0 introduce automatic updates for supported ESET security products. Auto-updates are used to deliver both feature and servicing updates. The auto-updates feature downloads .dup files during the first module update check. The latest version is activated after a restart.
Auto-updates differ from Micro Program Component Updates (uPCU) updates in that Auto-updates will only update supported ESET products managed by ESET PROTECT or ESET PROTECT On-Prem. uPCU updates have an automatic feature that will update managed or unmanaged ESET products.
You can also opt-out from auto-updates.
For ESET products that do not support automatic updates, you can upgrade the ESET product manually or download the latest version from the ESET downloads page.
Read more about how auto-updates work in our Online Help documentation for ESET PROTECT On-Prem or ESET PROTECT.
