    Why are some updates silent and others not?


    First of all I have automatic update in Group Policy set to notify for download (option 2). I have noticed that some updates like definition updates for defender antivirus gets updated without any notification. I know this because when I open up Reliability Monitor I can see anything that was updated. Other times I get a notification saying I need updates and the only thing listed might be a definition update and sometimes other things. Then I just click on the notification see what needs to be updated and all is good. So why are some definition updates being installed silently?

    :)

    Desktop App Converter - silent installer?


    One of the requirements for successfully running the Desktop App Converter app, now available on Windows Store, is a silent installer for the desktop application to convert to appx package. I would like to ask the TenForums users for suggestions on creating such a silent (non-interactive) installer.

    Update: NSIS can create silent installers Why are some updates silent and others not? :)

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.


    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Why are some updates silent and others not? :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
