Gpupdate from batch file giving me grief!
Morning chaps,
Want to pick your brains on “gpupdate /force†if you have a free moment.
On the our unattended XP SP2 build, there is a (batch) scripted OU move followed by a gpupdate /force.
This seems to have been fine for a while, but is now returning a confirmation prompt:
“Certain computer policies have are enabled that can only run during startupâ€Â
“OK to reboot?. <Y/N>â€Â
I’m assuming that there are certain policies that cause this to crop up – eg startup scripts or suchlike.
MS tout gpupdate as a scripting tool, but the potential for the above prompt to crop up is clearly a problem in a script. I can’t find any MS docs on criteria for the prompt appearing, or a built-in way of suppressing it. Feeding “N†from a response file is also not working for me.
Any ideas?

I just ran across this today myself. "gpupdate /force /No" seems to work.
Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,so that the conversation will remain readable.
