Is there a way to get the ZTIWindowsUpdate.wsf and ZTIUtility.vbs from the MDT product without installing MDT? I would like to setup updates with an SCCM OSD task but can not seem to find the files from an MDT installation.

Yes it seems to be slowing down the machines. The caveat here is that the machines are frozen with deep freeze. Updates get applied during a maintenance window that occurs every night but the autoupdate still check for updates on every startup. I will need to see if there is anything else that is causing the systems to be slow or unresponsive after startup.

Yes. The systems that I am working with use WSUS to configure updates but there does not seem to be a setting anywhere that specifically states when the system will check for updates. There is only the policy for "Automatic Updates detection frequency" which can set an interval to scan for updates but it is not exact. What I am finding is that the machines check for and download the updates, then wait to install them at the time that they are scheduled to install.

Is there a way to specify when a computer scans for available updates so that it does not scan for automatic updates on startup? In group policy the only thing close to this is "Automatic Updates detection frequency".
