kennysarmy Posted November 27, 2017 Posted November 27, 2017 On our Windows 7 PC's the users get the option to shutdown and install updates when applicable. Our Windows 10 PC's don't seem to ever get this, updates are pushed out via WSUS and the only machines on 100% up to date are those that have recently been "touched" by a domain admin who installed the updates manually. Can anyone share with me their GPO for WSUS that allows non admins to install updates at next shutdown?
kennysarmy Posted November 29, 2017 Author Posted November 29, 2017 Guessing no one else has this issue? Normal users can shut down PC's and install updates? Must be one of my GPO's then....
KK20 Posted November 29, 2017 Posted November 29, 2017 (edited) Our W10 GPO for WSUS: computer->policies->Admin->windows components->windows update Allow Automatic Updates immediate installation Disabled Automatic Updates detection frequency Enabled Check for updates at the following interval (hours): 4 Configure Automatic Updates Enabled Configure automatic updating: 4 - Auto download and schedule the install The following settings are only required and applicable if 4 is selected. Install during automatic maintenance Scheduled install day: 0 - Every day Scheduled install time: 16:05 If you have selected “4 – Auto download and schedule the install” for your scheduled install day and specified a schedule, you also have the option to limit updating to a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly occurrence, using the options below: Every week First week of the month Second week of the month Third week of the month Fourth week of the month Install updates for other Microsoft products Delay Restart for scheduled installations Enabled Wait the following period before proceeding with a scheduled restart (minutes): 15 Do not display 'Install Updates and Shut Down' option in Shut Down Windows dialog box Enabled Enable client-side targeting Enabled Target group name for this computer CommonUpdates;Windows10 Enabling Windows Update Power Management to automatically wake up the system to install scheduled updates Enabled No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installations Enabled Re-prompt for restart with scheduled installations Enabled Wait the following period before prompting again with a scheduled restart (minutes): 30 Reschedule Automatic Updates scheduled installations Enabled Wait after system startup (minutes): 30 Policy Setting Comment Specify intranet Microsoft update service location Enabled Set the intranet update service for detecting updates: http://:8530 Set the intranet statistics server: http://:8530 Set the alternate download server: (example: http://IntranetUpd01) Download files with no Url in the metadata if alternate download server is set. I always seem to be at 99% with updates, there always seems to be at least 1 update "waiting to be installed" at any one time.... Edited November 29, 2017 by KK20 2
kennysarmy Posted November 29, 2017 Author Posted November 29, 2017 Curious as to your rationale on "Allow Automatic Updates immediate installation" : Disabled
KK20 Posted November 29, 2017 Posted November 29, 2017 (edited) because I only want the updates installing after 16:05 not during the day. "Wait after system startup" gets registration out of the way too. It should be noted that this policy is unchanged from our W7, W8.1 and W10 machines (WMI exists to point to different client side processing), it has always worked for us.
