Hi,

Since I update my WinXP Pro to SP3, all the Auto Updates settings are hiden (grey) see the here bellow image.

In fact i want setting the Auto Updates to "Notify for new updates without downloading".

I checked the following registery and tested/modify the values tp 0,1,2 without success

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\wuauserv]
"Start"=dword:00000002

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Browser]
"Start"=dword:00000004

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BITS]
"Start"=dword:00000002

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center]
"UpdatesDisableNotify"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update]
"AUOptions"=dword:00000002
"ConfigVer"=dword:00000001

I think this is what you're looking for, and it is in the previous link:

...

Value name: AUOptions

Value data: 1 to 4

* 1: Keep my computer up to date has been disabled in Automatic Updates.

Try applying only 1 registry tweak (remove the rest) via GUIRUNONCE or RUNONCEEX. (I had mine done this way and it works)

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update]
"AUOptions"=dword:00000002

TNX men,

tested all and sorry to report you that nothing release the Auto Updates settings.

They are still hiden (grey) see image in my first post.
