    Do Windows updates or install programs use Windows Script Host?


    I notice that when I start Windows after an update, I often briefly see one or more command Windows. The Windows close quickly so I cannot read the command that was executed. But it makes me think that possibly scripts were run as part of the update. My fear is that disabling WSH might prevent updates from completing.

    :)

    Windows Script Host

    Hi Tiara,

    The message "Windows Script Host access is disabled on this machine. Contact your administrator for details" is usually occurring if a program that does not require the feature of Windows Script Host is running on a Windows PC. For us to provide an accurate
    solution, we would need you to answer the following questions:

    • Which build, version and edition of Windows is installed on your computer?
    • Does the message appear when you are launching a specific application?
    • What changes were made to the device before this issue happened?

    For initial troubleshooting, we suggest following the steps provided by
    Ramesh Srinivasan     in this thread.

    We are looking forward to your response.

    Do Windows updates or install programs use Windows Script Host?

    Windows Script Host

    Hi Boniface,

    Windows Script Host provides your PC the scripting abilities like
    batch files, but Windows Script Host offers more features. You can enable
    Windows Script Host to stop 'Windows Script Host is disabled on this machine, contact your administrator for details'
    message by following these steps:

    • Press Windows + R to open Run.
    • Type regedit and press Enter to open the
      Registry Editor.
    • Navigate to this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows Script Host\Settings.
    • On the right panel, double-click Enabled and change the
      Value data to 1.
    • Save the changes and exit the Registry Editor.

      Note: Do not modify other keys on the Registry without having enough knowledge about that registry key as it may cause some failures on your PC

    Let us know how things go.

    Regards.
