number 1
Obviously you have to shut down to install both, but I think that it would be "application updates", not "applications updates",
so as applications (plural) is in your original sentence, number 1 is what is meant.

para instalar algo, lo que sea, es conveniente apagar todo tipo de servicios, programas, etc, ya que de estar en ejecución, crean un bloqueo a nivel de disco duro que impide su modificación, que es lo que queremos con una instalación "o" una actualización, es decir, modificar.
