Can you make a batch script where windows update will be set to automatic?
WARNING: The following answer contains information related to the Windows registry. You use this information entirely at your own risk!The "automatic" option is stored in the Windows registry, here:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto UpdateThe AUOptions value has the following settings:0x00000001 (1): Never check for updates (not recommended)0x00000002 (2): Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them0x00000003 (3): Download updates but let me choose whether to install them0x00000004 (4): Install updates automatically (recommended)The CachedAUOptions value must match the AUOptionsvalue. Both values are REG_DWORD values. To switch to automatic updates, change both values to 0x00000004 (4).To silently switch to automatic updates via batch file, first create the following REG file (or ECHO it to a temporary file from within your batch file):Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update]"AUOptions"=dword:00000004"CachedAUOptions"=dword:00000004Within your batch file execute the following command:reg import Replace with the full path and file name of your saved REG file. If you ECHO'd a temporary file, remember to delete the temporary file when you are finished importing.
