A block of code is set as follows:

//Unattended-Upgrade::Automatic-Reboot "false";
  Unattended-Upgrade::Automatic-Reboot "true";

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "Spend some time perusing the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures database, and you'll soon see why it's so important to keep your systems updated."
