# Update-MyDellBios

{% hint style="danger" %}
Requires Admin Rights
{% endhint %}

This will take **`Get-MyDellBIOS`** function one step further and Download and Install the update.  Without any switches its pretty harmless.  The computer is checked for BitLocker before the update and it is set to Suspend for 1 reboot automatically

## -Silent

This is scary stuff.  It will actually perform the BIOS Update without the GUI.  Does not Reboot.  You should notice a change when you Shutdown though

![](/files/-MV-mFLxEcyFmnX4UNMZ)

## -Reboot

This will take things one step further.  After the Update is complete, the system will reboot automatically.  Here is the proper command line

```
Update-MyDellBios -Silent -Reboot
```

## Logs

This will log automatically to the following path.  There is no option to change or redirect at this time

```
$env:TEMP\Update-MyDellBios.log
```
