When an update is available, Docker Desktop displays an icon to indicate the availability of a newer version.
When an update is available, Docker Desktop displays an icon on the Docker menu to indicate the availability of a newer version. Additionally, the **Software Updates** section in **Preferences** (**Settings** on Windows) also notifies you of any updates available to Docker Desktop. You can choose to download the update right away, or click the **Release Notes** option to learn what's included in the updated version.
Starting with Docker Desktop 4.1.0, the **Software Updates** section in the [General](../#general) tab also notifies you of any updates available to Docker Desktop. You can choose to download the update right away, or click the **Release Notes** option to learn what's included in the updated version. If you are on a Docker Team or a Business subscription, you can turn off the check for updates by clearing the **Automatically Check for Updates** checkbox in the [General](../#general) settings. This will also disable the notification badge that appears on the Docker Dashboard.
To encourage developers to stay up to date, Docker Desktop displays a reminder two weeks after an update becomes available. You can dismiss this daily reminder by clicking **Snooze**. You can skip an update when a reminder appears by clicking the **Skip this update** option.
Starting with Docker Desktop 4.2.0, the option to turn off the automatic check for updates is available for users on all Docker subscriptions, including Docker Personal and Docker Pro. For more information, see [Software Updates](../#software-updates).

## Dashboard
The Docker Desktop Dashboard enables you to interact with containers and applications and manage the lifecycle of your applications directly from your machine. The Dashboard UI shows all running, stopped, and started containers with their state. It provides an intuitive interface to perform common actions to inspect and manage containers and existing Docker Compose applications. For more information, see [Docker Desktop Dashboard](../dashboard.md).

## Pause/Resume
Starting with the Docker Desktop 4.2 release, you can pause your Docker Desktop session when you are not actively using it and save CPU resources on your machine. When you pause Docker Desktop, the Linux VM running Docker Engine is paused, the current state of all your containers are saved in memory, and all processes are frozen. This reduces the CPU usage and helps you retain a longer battery life on your laptop. You can resume Docker Desktop when you want by clicking the Resume option.

You can still access the **Preferences** and the **Troubleshoot** menu from the Dashboard when you've paused Docker Desktop.
