Windows 10: View Configured Update Policies in Windows 10

At least you can manually download and install the 32-bit KB4043961 though.

Cumulative Update KB4043961 Windows 10 v1709 Build 16299.19 - Windows 10 Forums

 

Yes, I tried that to see if it made a difference.

On the x86 16299.15 Pro, I ticked the box, checked for updates and got the message to show. Then I installed the offline KB4043961 and successfully updated to 16299.19. The message still showed and remained there, even after checking for updates.

Unticked the box, deleted the key, checked for updates and removed the message. Restarted and tested again - ticking the box brings back the message.

Maybe KB4043961 is only a partial fix, then. Seems OK in x64 Home, but not in x86 Pro. Can't tell if that's because of x86 vs. x64 or Home vs. Pro as I don't have the other permutations test it on.

Or maybe its not a fix at all and Home doesn't (visibly) suffer from this bug.

I'm out of testing options now *Smile

Time to restore my test machine's image of 16299.15 and wait to see if MS fix the x86 update 'blind-spot'...
(aren't system images wonderful *Smile)



Edit:

Well.... I suppose I could uninstall KB4043961 on the x64 Home....


Nah... it's my main machine and I don't want to risk breaking it. Takes a long time to restore that one's system image (it's much bigger) and then there's all the more recent user files to restore from backups....

No! I value my sanity too much!

 

Seems I owe Microsoft a big apology - it's not their 'blind spot', it was mine. *Redface

I had occasion on another thread to restore my test machine's 1607 image to try upgrading 1607 to 1709. It worked (as I expected) but was surprised to see that when I checked for updates it found the x86 KB4043961 without a problem. Thinking MS had fixed something, I restored my 1709 image that couldn't see KB4043961 and checked for updates again - found nothing but a Defender definition.

So I went into Update's Advanced settings and changed every one of them (except of course that proxy setting with the known bug) then put them back as they were, I even paused then resumed updates. Must have been something out of step in my registry before, because it's now found and installed the 32-bit KB4043961. *Party

(now I'll have to update that system image)

 

This is what I have for that key:

Code: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX] "IsConvergedUpdateStackEnabled"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX\Settings] "ActiveHoursEnd"=dword:00000011 "ActiveHoursStart"=dword:00000008 "AllowAutoWindowsUpdateDownloadOverMeteredNetwork"=dword:00000000 "BranchReadinessLevel"=dword:00000010 "DeferFeatureUpdatesPeriodInDays"=dword:00000000 "DeferQualityUpdatesPeriodInDays"=dword:00000000 "ExcludeWUDriversInQualityUpdate"=dword:00000000 "FlightCommitted"=dword:00000000 "UxOption"=dword:00000000 "LastToastAction"=dword:00000071 "RestartNotificationsAllowed"=dword:00000001 "FlightSettingsMaxPauseDays"=dword:00000007 "AutoRebootLimitInDays"=dword:00000002 "SnoozeRebootHours"=dword:00000030 "InsiderProgramEnabled"=dword:00000001[/quote]

 

Hello,
I'm using Windows 10 Pro 1709 x64.
it's been several days since I tried to get rid of the message Some settings are managed by your organization without success *Banghead Is there any known issue?

Also, is possible to configure updates like Win7 "Notify before Downloading and Installing Updates", then check the wanted update to be downloaded and installed?

Regards

 

Hello coukou, *Smile

You could use Option 1 or 2 in the tutorial below to set Windows 10 to "Notify before Downloading and Installing Updates".

*Arrow Enable or Disable Windows Update Automatic Updates in Windows 10 Windows 10 Tutorials

Does it show anything when you click on the View configured update policies link?

 

TNX for yr reply Brink *Wink
As you can see in the image bellow, the View configured update policies doesn't show/give any setting.

BTW here bellow also my 2 WindowsUpdate Policies Settings register files
Regards

WindowsUpateAU.reg

WinUpdateUX-Settings.reg

 

You're .reg files indicate that you do have group policies configured for Windows Update, and would be why you see the Some settings are managed by your organization message.

If you don't want these policies, you could use the tutorial below to reset Windows Update. It includes resetting all Windows Update policies back to default (Not Configured) as well.

*Arrow Reset Windows Update in Windows 10 Windows 10 Tutorials

 

Sorry for the delay,
I used Reset Windows Update in Windows 10 Windows 10 Tutorials, it suppress all historical updates but still have the Some settings are managed by your organization message. I even launch it twice and can't get rid from that message.
Regards

 

Does View configured update policies still show any configured policies?

If not and Windows Update is working properly, then I wouldn't worry about it and would recommend to wait until the new Windows 10 is released on April 30th to see if that will clear it for you.

 

Maybe i've to suppress the reg
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX\Settings]
isn't it? If so, I'll suppress it on sunday and let you know further *Wink
