How do I install updates from Microsoft or software on the server while the server is in Application Mode?

From MS KB article 186612:

To install a device using Installation mode, open a command prompt and enter the command, CHANGE USER /INSTALL. Then install your device. Return to the command prompt after installation, and enter CHANGE USER /EXECUTE. If the device installation requires you to reboot the server, doing so will place the server back in Execution mode.

Easiest way to do it is:

Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs -> Add New Programs -> CD or Floppy then navigate to the software you want to install and select whetever executable is the setup program. This will change modes allowing you to install the software and it will change modes back when installation is complete.
