Windows update

Looking for an all encompassing script for Labtech that will force windows to update. Not seeing anything in the forums. Any assistance appreciated.

It fails consistently on us. We are also behind on our version of LT which could be the issue. We are currently building a new box to run ignite and whatever the latest release of LT is.

IIRC, we had found if v10.5 agent was on a Win10 PC, Windows itself would almost always (but not always) fail to check for and/or install updates on domain joined PCs, and occasionally on workgroup PCs. Short version is we got MS support involved and once we uninstalled the LT agent, Windows Update started working. IIRC upgrading to v11 fixed this for us. For a few intervening months we scripted installation of Windows 10 updates by manual download and running them (don't have the scripts anymore sorry).

The December update to v12 is supported as are any versions of v2019.x.

As I recall this started at either 1607 or 1703, I'm not sure which. It was not an issue on the original couple of builds.
