  1. Shut down command with installing updates


    Hi, is it possible to shut down Windows 10 with a command or a desktop shortcut which will install pending updates first and then shuts down the computer? I know this might be a silly question since most of the users are trying to avoid updates so the computer is shut down immediately.
    When I use shutdown.exe with "/s /t 0" parameters it shuts the computer down but the pending updates are not installed. I know I can use the power button in Start menu but it just takes too many clicks.

    It would be superb if this can be achieved only with common Windows components (Powershell included) and without the need of elevated (admin) privileges, but I'm fine with 3rd party tools as well.

    Thank you.

    GPU-Z what command line parameter ?

    Suggestion: /? (-?) and /help (-help) command-line arguments to show a list of all possible arguments in a small window. *Smile Shut down command with installing updates :)

    Installation media boots to command prompt

    I've just booted from known working install media to see exactly what it does when booting. The sequence of events is...

    1. Windows logo on a black screen
    2. circling dots appear beneath the logo
    3. light blue 'Please wait' screen with circling dots
    4. a command prompt window (very briefly)
    5. the initial Setup page appears

    Do you see steps 1-3? If so, it appears you have stopped at step 4, suggesting that something on the disc cannot be read.

    Does the disc boot properly in another machine? If so, try cleaning the laptop's drive lens then try booting from the disc again.

    If not, make new install media with Microsoft's Media Creation Tool, either as a bootable USB, on an ISO that you can burn to another disc. At Step 8 in Option One of this tutorial you can choose between making a USB or an ISO.
