Regular Cablecast Server Maintenance
Keep Windows up to date:
Updates come out on the second Tuesday of every month.
To check for Windows updates, go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update, and click on "Check for updates" to ensure your system is up to date.
Pending Status:
Pending updates, while not directly impacting performance, may initiate background processes and, when being installed, temporarily consume system resources. It's advisable to regularly check for and install updates to ensure optimal system security, stability, and performance. If performance issues arise, addressing pending updates can be part of the troubleshooting process.
The Windows update icon in the system tray typically appears as a small white or blue square with a multicolored Windows logo. When there are pending updates, the icon may display an alert symbol, such as an exclamation mark, to indicate that updates are available.
It's also a good idea to run the Disk Cleanup Utility against the C drive to clear out any temporary files that might be taking up space on the servers.
