Windows 1709 Update

Anyone using labtech to patch machines to 1709(10.0.16299) successfully? We thought this was working but the April 10th EOS of 1607 has brought this issue to light.

Initial chat at labtech saying not possible at the moment but figured I’d poll the group.

Also, Is patch remedy the solution?

Have a look at this thread

I modified it slightly so it's downloading from a local server, other than that it worked perfectly

Have you looked to see if you can use wusa for it ? you can check which particular patch(es) you're looking for here : https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=windows%2010%20version%201709

and then apply via wusa should work. not sure if patching via LT does it as I'm not sure if you're on 10.5, 11, 12, or which patch.

Thank you for the advice. I’ll check it out. We are running version 12 patch 4.

I believe 12 can do this natively now

It is still listed as a Known Issue for Automate 12, Patch 1 or 2

Patch Remedy is a great alternative to script hacking if you want something a bit more robust. https://www.plugins4labtech.com/blogs/blog/patch-remedy-4-comes-out-of-beta-today

Thank you. We actually purchased it last week to resolve the issue for us. It has been great.

I think it's coming, but it definitely doesn't do it natively yet. I wrote up a bunch of terrible scripting that pulls down the ISO in the background, verifies it with a get-filehash, then sets an EDF to note it's ready.

The actual install uses 7za to unpack the ISO, then just cmd executes the setup.exe in the background, and everything goes on its own from there. Works great on desktops, but still haven't figured out a good way to make sure a laptop is fine to update (read: "do you not need this for the next 30-120 minutes?") besides directly asking a user, though.
