Im sorry, im just overloaded of information due to moving from win 7 and im trying to lower the cons as much as possible. What works better on 2020, WUMT or WuMgr?
WUMT is from 2016, but it should still work. I prefer WuMgr, more up-to-date, open source, plus the author is a member here and will actively respond to questions (WuMgr is a tool coming from here).
Thanks for this great job, you and the rest who made this possible. This made my life a little bit better on these difficult times.
@rpo, thank you for this. I would have had to beat my head against a wall for a week trying to figure this out. I had no idea that they had changed anything about powershell. You're a rock star.
MS documentation says : "-UseBasicParsing This parameter has been deprecated. Beginning with PowerShell 6.0.0, all Web requests use basic parsing only. This parameter is included for backwards compatibility only and any use of it has no effect on the operation of the cmdlet." MS liar...
I haven't been able to check yet due to previous commitments, but it really doesn't matter whether it does or not because I can do "if powershell version is under 6.0.0 run old code, else run new code." Also, thanks for reporting this ms-defcon issue. Edit: I just realized you might mean you want to plug in the new code manually. If so, the worst that could happen is the ms-defcon level won't show on earlier versions of powershell. Either way, I should be able to work on this about 36 hours from now.
Is there a Guide/Tutorial for newbie? Unfortunately I'm finding difficult to understand/use It (for now I'm only using Windows Update Blocker to block windows update). Many thanks
@rpo The timeout problem is on an unbutchered LTSB 14393.3541 install. I won't be able to work on this any more until 3 days from now.
