This will begin the automatic update process for the workstation.When 'Use Update Manager' is set to 'YES', this screen will appear allowing you to change which updates automatically install when you open the program. The Update Manager allows you to select each of the Federal, Business and E-file updates, as well as up to three states that will automatically update.
