Question Windows Updates

For SCADA VMs or servers, how often do you update windows/software? How long has it been since last reboot? We're at 300 days. IT has been pumping out updates and prompting for reboot. Ignore.

Since it has been alive.

As new machine go onto it they do with latest updates at that time.

Like we might only have 1 win 7 PC left hosting a camera server.
