# 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
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://osd.osdeploy.com/docs/trash/dell/update-mydellbios.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
