# Create Update Rings in Patch My PC Cloud
*Applies to: Patch My PC Cloud*
To create Update Rings for a new Deployment in Patch My PC (PMPC) Cloud:
1. If you are unfamiliar with creating a deployment, follow the [Deploy an App](https://docs.patchmypc.com/patch-my-pc-cloud/deployments/deploy-app) process until Step 7.
2. On the **Assignments** page, click **Enable Update Rings**.
3. From the **Update ring start time** dropdown, choose how you want your Update Rings to handle the start times for their assignments:\
• [Delayed](https://docs.patchmypc.com/patch-my-pc-cloud/deployments/update-ring-types#delayed)\
• [Immediate](https://docs.patchmypc.com/patch-my-pc-cloud/deployments/update-ring-types#immediate)
By default, two Update Rings are created with a two-day delay between them.
4. If you do not want to add additional Update Rings, go to step 7.\
\
To add an additional Update Ring, click **Add Update Ring**.
5. On the **Add Update Ring** dialog box, enter the name for the new ring in the **Name** field and click **Save**.
A new ring is added.

**Important**
Whenever you add a new Update Ring, it is created with a default delay of **0** days, i.e. the deployment will be installed immediately on any targeted users/devices.
If you already have another ring with a default delay of 0 days, you will see the **Two rings cannot have the same delay value** message besides the second ring with the duplicate delay.
You should adjust the delays on your Update Rings to avoid duplicates.
Also, if your [Sync Schedule](https://docs.patchmypc.com/patch-my-pc-cloud/manage/manage-settings/manage-the-sync-schedule-in-cloud) is configured for anything other than **Daily**, this will affect the delay you can configure between rings. For example, assuming you have your Sync Schedule configured for **Monthly**, when you add a new ring you will not be able to configure a delay between rings of less than 30 days as shown below.

6. Repeat step 4 to add any additional Update Rings.

8. Enter the ring's name in the **Name** field of the **Edit Update Ring** dialog box, then click **Save**.
The updated name appears.
9. Change the name of any other rings.
10. If you do not want to change the delay for any of the rings, go to Step 11.\

If you want to change the delay for a ring, click the plus (**+**) or minus (**-**) sign beside the relevant rings.
11. Click **Add Assignment** and add the relevant assignments for each ring, configuring the settings for each assignment as required.

**Note**
See the [Assignments](https://docs.patchmypc.com/patch-my-pc-cloud/deployments/deploy-app/assignments-tab) section of the [Deploy an App](https://docs.patchmypc.com/patch-my-pc-cloud/deployments/deploy-app) process for more information.

**Tip**
You can drag assignments between Update Rings by clicking the double ellipsis () beside the relevant assignment and dragging and dropping it to the relevant Update Ring.
{% endhint %}
12. Click **Deploy**.
The **“<*****deployment\_name*****>” Deployment Summary** dialog box appears, summarizing what you are deploying, to which groups, and when.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**
If your [Sync Schedule](https://docs.patchmypc.com/patch-my-pc-cloud/manage/manage-settings/manage-the-sync-schedule-in-cloud) is set to anything other than **Daily**, the UI will warn you that some rings may not be evaluated as expected.
This is why we recommend you set your [Sync Schedule](https://docs.patchmypc.com/patch-my-pc-cloud/manage/manage-settings/manage-the-sync-schedule-in-cloud) to **Daily** if you plan to use Update Rings.
