    Question about Automatic Updates


    Computers at my school always installing updates right after a user logged in. I have set scheduled time to 12 AM but i'm confused with Automatic Updates and AUOptions (don't know what it excatly called)

    If i disable Automatic Updates, and set AUOptions as "automatically download and scheduled installation", does it still update at scheduled time?

    :)

  2. Questions about Automatic Windows Update

    Your pc installed a feature update because Windows 10 receives two major updates per year which are mandatory and automatic. Windows version 1703 is the spring creators update for Windows 10. 1709 is the fall creators update. There's no opting out if you're
    using Home or Pro, if you continue to ignore it the update will be forced.

    You can't opt out of updates so if it's failing, you can either perform a clean install, contact Answer Desk, or schedule an appointment at a local Microsoft store. Ignoring it isn't an option, if the update fails and you fall more than two versions behind
    the license expires.

  3. Questions about Automatic Windows Update

    I'm not looking to update Windows 10. So, it seems no one can tell me why Windows installed a feature update on a version of Windows that I am not running. I would assume that is why when it ask for a restart to finish the install it doesn't work.
    So I will just continue to ignore it.

  4. Question about Automatic Updates

    Automated updates need to be enabled to bring the options into play. I assume you are doing this through Group Policy editor.

    Interesting that it still downloads with disabled on.

    So if automated updates is enabled, scheduled time will be useless?

  6. No. Turn on automatic updates and set the schedule.

    I believe in this sense it is just saying should I use automation or should I do it manually. You are saying use automation and in doing so use this schedule.
