    Automatic updates and restart password


    This is a two part issue. I have 2 computers, a desktop and a laptop and they behave differently for updates and restarts.


    Desktop updates automatically I leave computer on all the time, monitor goes to sleep but I have to enter Microsoft password to enable home screen after start up.


    Laptop is always plugged in and put to sleep but it does not update automatically. When I go to settings - update- search for updates, it downloads, I nstalls, and restarts but I don't need to enter any password.


    Any clues how to eliminate the need for password on desktop and get laptop to update automatically?

    :)

    Resolution Suggestion:

    # To resolve this problem, make sure that BITS and the Automatic Updates service are started..

    A simple solution but one that works in most circumstances!

    1. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK.

    2. In the list of services, right-click Automatic Updates, and then click Properties.

    3. In the Startup type list, click Automatic, and then click Apply.

    4. If Service status is set to Stopped, click Start, and then click OK.

    5. Right-click Background Intelligent Transfer Service, and then click Properties.

    6. In the Startup type list, click Manual, and then click Apply.

    7. If Service status is set to Stopped, click Start, and then click OK.

    Automatic updates and restart password

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.


    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Automatic updates and restart password :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
