On the first page (//General//), enter a name for the collection and an optional description. Check that the output directory is correct or customize it ([[image:1745390057699-386.png]]) and select the correct one. Check the checkbox (“Prompt users to save their open files and close all Microsoft Office applications so that updates can be installed”) if you want to explicitly deploy Microsoft 365 updates via this collection. If this option is selected and the scanner detects that Office applications need to be updated, a dialog box will inform the user and prompt them to save all open Microsoft Office documents and close all Office applications. Otherwise, the installation of these Updates may fail.

35		-On the next page, define a filter that includes the products and classifications that should apply to this update collection. Only the products and classifications that you previously selected using the First Steps Wizard or subsequently in the settings are displayed here. In other words, you can only assign products and classifications to a collection that you have obtained as metadata. In this example, a collection is to be created for a Windows 11 upgrade, so only the product //Windows 11// is selected in the upper part and only //Upgrades// under the classifications.

	47	+On the next page, define a filter that includes the products and classifications that should apply to this update collection. You can choose between two filter modes: //Standard filter// or //Advanced filter//.
	48	+
	49	+__Standard filter__: Only the products and classifications that you previously selected via the First Steps Wizard or subsequently in the settings are displayed here. In other words, you can only assign the products and classification to a collection that you have subscribed to. Click on them to include them in the collection. Use the filter at the bottom to select whether you want to display all checked or suggested products.

	52	+In the “Suggested” column, you can see directly from the product list whether a product is suggested for the filter or not.
	53	+{{/box}}
	54	+
	55	+__Advanced filter__: The advanced filter allows you to individually specify which updates you want to add to the Windows Update Collection. All fields related to an update are available for this purpose. The versatile constellations allow you to create specific collections that exactly meet your requirements, enabling the smooth deployment of various updates. This makes it possible, for example, to create a collection that contains all updates from Dell, but without distributing the BIOS updates. Conversely, it is also possible to add only Dell BIOS updates to a collection.
