# OS updates
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_Available in Fleet Premium_
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In Fleet you can enforce OS updates on your macOS and Windows hosts remotely.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Enforce OS updates
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can enforce OS updates using the Fleet UI, Fleet API, or [Fleet's GitOps workflow](https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet-gitops).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fleet UI:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Head to the **Controls** > **OS updates** tab.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. To enforce OS updates for macOS, select **macOS** and set a **Minimum version** and **Deadline**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. For Windows, select **Windows** and set a **Deadline** and **Grace period**.
|
||
|
|
