Microsoft Software Center is a content delivery application for Windows 10 that UCF IT uses to deliver applications and updates to your computer. When off-campus, you need to connect to VPN to use Software Center. For a Mac, see “Getting Started with Jamf Self Service.”
UCF IT provides several software applications and updates for you to install via Software Center.
To launch Software Center, open the Start Menu and navigate to Microsoft Endpoint Manager > Software Center.
Alternatively, typing “Software Center” after opening either the Start Menu or the Search Box on your Taskbar returns Software Center as a match.
Your desktop might also have a shortcut to launch Software Center.
When you launch Software Center, the application lists available software for you to install on your computer.
You can also search for a specific application from the panel at the top right.
When you select an application, Software Center displays essential information about that application. Select the Install button to start installing an application.
You can view other available updates to Windows or applications on the left-hand side of the Software Center window.
You might be notified that a new application has been made available to you, but in some cases Software Center does not list it. You can refresh what is currently available in Software Center by navigating to Options à Computer maintenance and selecting Sync Policy.
If you have any questions about any of the material covered here please reach out to the UCF IT Support Center.
