I want to set Windows Update for check updates every 9 hours; for this purpose I found this Policy: Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update > Automatic Updates detection frequency. I've enabled it and set at 9 hours, but the help of this rule says: For this policy to take effect, the “Specify intranet Microsoft update service location” setting must also be enabled. But I want get updates directly from the Microsoft Windows Updates Web Servers, as normal. Any suggestion?
“Specify intranet Microsoft update service location” means pointing to an update server to get updates... As you are connecting to Windows updates, that option should not be set...
With MS servers used, the check time is hard-coded to 22 hours. For preventing DoS attacks, I guess. Simply create a schedules task that triggers an update check every 9 hours. Code: wuauclt.exe /detectnow
Works well in Win Pro, Win Ent, Server 2016 and any older versions of Windows Cut both apps in Window/systemWOW64 and create shortcuts as needed and your good... "then open up the Update Notify Tool/App go within its options by right click after you started it up by right click admin and make your own adjustments as needed... for your own needs and requirements... and time to time check and run a couple times a month in what the Windows Mini Tool has to download for you as new MS updates... Apps = Windows Updates Notify & Windows Mini Tool Enjoy
Exactly. Like this: Open task scheduler, create task, Trigger: Time interval 9 hours Action:C:\Windows\System32\UsoClient.exe Arguments:StartScan (The "wuauclt.exe /updatenow" or"/DetectNow" is totally depreciated in Win 10 and wont work)
