After downloading updates to Windows XP PC from WSUS server, is there a way that the remote PC can "request" its updates to be installed?
After downloading updates to Windows XP PC from WSUS server, is there a way that the remote PC can "request" its updates to be installed?As opposed to setting a deadline in the WSUS server.
On our WSUS server, I download the updates to the PC group, but do not set a deadline.
What we want to do is launch a script/request for the updates to install.

There are scripts out on the web to do this. Take a look at http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverwsus/thread/cdb77d05-2f97-4055-bc0b-44101d270db3/

That will force the machine to detect updates from the WSUS server, but it won't force an install of the updates. - philologist 12 years ago
