Automating automatic updates with logged-on administrator (and WSUS)

[careless_hxuk]

Is it possible to force automatic updates to install in the background when an administrator is logged on locally? At the moment, it is configured to download and install updates on a schedule using WSUS 3.0.6 on Windows Server 2003. When a non-administrator is logged on, the updates download and install in the background, but when an administrator is logged on it is not automatic - the shield icon appears and prompts the user to start the update process.

Unfortunately, I can't rely on the users to initiate the update process themselves, and as every domain user is a local administrator (don't ask, software issues) this means that updates are downloaded but never installed.

Ideally, automatic updates would behave in the same way for administrators as non-administrators (ie. they download and install in the background and automatically at shutdown), but I can't find a setting for this in the group policy.

Anyone have any ideas?

Ohhhhhhhhhhh my god it's same my proplem but i got the answer:

will ,

it,s in group policy

User configuration>system>windows automatically updates" apply it locally or from domain DC"

to get update directlly on clients

run

gpupdate

gpupdate /force

wuauclt /updatenow";search for wuauclt parameter in google pls;" "or waiting to specific time"

make sure automatically update turned on in all clients, and firewall is off or add expectation on clients
