Windows Server Updates - October 2026

We will be carrying out essential Windows Updates to our Windows Shared Hosting Servers, Hyper-V Servers, and Managed Dedicated Servers during the windows listed below.

These updates include the latest security patches released by Microsoft on "Patch Tuesday", addressing several critical vulnerabilities and improving overall system stability.

Maintenance Schedule

• Start of Work - At-Risk Period: 2026-10-14
• End of Work - At-Risk Period: 2026-10-15
• Daily Time Window: 05:00 - 08:30 (UK Time)

Service Impact

During these windows, servers will be updated and subsequently rebooted.

• Expected Downtime: A short service interruption lasting between 1 and 4 minutes per server as the reboots occur. Most servers will require two reboots to fully apply security configurations.

Reason for Maintenance

Microsoft releases security updates on the second Tuesday of each month to patch vulnerabilities and improve OS performance. To ensure the highest level of security and reliability for your data, Web Wiz tests these patches immediately and rolls them out to all managed infrastructure during our scheduled maintenance windows.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience as we work to keep your hosting environment secure.
