Scheduling Windows Updates Through Task Scheduler

Hi, this doesn't directly answer your question, which is harder to answer as you lack the Group policy editor, but it may contribute to it.

I understand that not only would you wish to control restarts related to updates but also the download of updates.

In scheduling a scan for windows updates so these are downloaded at only a particular time, you would also need to inhibit the normal feature. One way of doing this is given here: (note the registry method is at the end, before you say you haven't got the Pro version).

Considering your scheduled task, presumably you have done sth like this:

1. Open Task Scheduler
   
   
2. Create a new task
   
3. In the "General" tab - ensure the following settings are entered:
   
   • "Run whether user is logged on or not"
     
   • "Run with highest privileges"
     
   • "Configure For" (your operating system)
4. In the "Triggers" tab, when adding a trigger (schedule) - ensure that the "Enabled" checkbox is checked

The other tabs need to be looked at as well (actions etc) - but these are the options you should specify when trying to ensure a task runs regardless of which user is logged in, and without the UAC prompts.


When saving the task, you will be prompted to enter a username and password - this username and password is the user that will be used to execute the task. If you are running the task with "highest privileges" you will need to make sure this is an admin account.

Task Scheduler no change possible

Hi Jay,

For us to isolate the issue with modifying task scheduler, we would like to know the following:

• Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?
• Are you getting any error messages? If yes, what is the exact error message?
• To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

As an initial troubleshooting, we suggest that you create a new user profile,
and check if the issue still persists.

We look forward to your response.
