Workplace update

Workplace Device Compliance software will update automatically after a reboot of the machine.  Workplace is constantly updated to support new system configurations, operating systems and browsers.  It is expected that users will be running a version of Workplace that is no more than 2 versions behind from the current stable release.  The end-user does not have to do anything to update, nor does the update require admin permissions on the machine.
