The Remote Desktop client offers three ways to update:

- Silent background updates, where a background process checks for updates a few times a day and will update the client if a new update is available.

To avoid interrupting users, silent updates won't happen while users have the client open, have a remote connection active, or if you've disabled automatic updates. If the client is running while a silent background update occurs, the client will show a notification to let users know an update is available.

## Azure Virtual Desktop (HostApp)

The Azure Virtual Desktop (HostApp) is a platform component containing a set of predefined user interfaces and APIs that Azure Virtual Desktop developers can use to deploy and manage Remote Desktop connections to their Azure Virtual Desktop resources. If this application is required on a device for another application to work correctly, it will automatically be downloaded by the other application. There should be no need for user interaction.

The purpose of the Azure Virtual Desktop (HostApp) is to provide core functionality to other client apps in the Microsoft Store. This is known as the *Hosted App Model*. For more information, see [Hosted App Model](https://blogs.windows.com/windowsdeveloper/2020/03/19/hosted-app-model/).
