Enables the IT admin to manage automatic update behavior to scan, download, and install updates.

Supported operations are Get and Replace.


> [!IMPORTANT]
> This option should be used only for systems under regulatory compliance, as you will not get security updates as well.
 

If the policy is not configured, end-users get the default behavior (Auto install and restart).

<!--/ADMXMapped-->
<!--SupportedValues-->
The following list shows the supported values:

-   0 – Notify the user before downloading the update. This policy is used by the enterprise who wants to enable the end-users to manage data usage. With this option users are notified when there are updates that apply to the device and are ready for download. Users can download and install the updates from the Windows Update control panel.
-   1 – Auto install the update and then notify the user to schedule a device restart. Updates are downloaded automatically on non-metered networks and installed during "Automatic Maintenance" when the device is not in use and is not running on battery power. If automatic maintenance is unable to install updates for two days, Windows Update will install updates immediately. If the installation requires a restart, the end-user is prompted to schedule the restart time. The end-user has up to seven days to schedule the restart and after that, a restart of the device is forced. Enabling the end-user to control the start time reduces the risk of accidental data loss caused by applications that do not shutdown properly on restart.
-   2 (default) – Auto install and restart. Updates are downloaded automatically on non-metered networks and installed during "Automatic Maintenance" when the device is not in use and is not running on battery power. If automatic maintenance is unable to install updates for two days, Windows Update will install updates right away. If a restart is required, then the device is automatically restarted when the device is not actively being used. This is the default behavior for unmanaged devices. Devices are updated quickly, but it increases the risk of accidental data loss caused by an application that does not shutdown properly on restart.
-   3 – Auto install and restart at a specified time. The IT specifies the installation day and time. If no day and time are specified, the default is 3 AM daily. Automatic installation happens at this time and device restart happens after a 15-minute countdown. If the user is logged in when Windows is ready to restart, the user can interrupt the 15-minute countdown to delay the restart.
-   4 – Auto install and restart without end-user control. Updates are downloaded automatically on non-metered networks and installed during "Automatic Maintenance" when the device is not in use and is not running on battery power. If automatic maintenance is unable to install updates for two days, Windows Update will install updates right away. If a restart is required, then the device is automatically restarted when the device is not actively being used. This setting option also sets the end-user control panel to read-only.
-   5 – Turn off automatic updates.

<hr/>

<!--/Scope-->
<!--Description-->
Added in Windows 10, version 1709. Option to download updates automatically over metered connections (off by default). Value type is integer.

A significant number of devices primarily use cellular data and do not have Wi-Fi access, which leads to a lower number of devices getting updates. Since a large number of devices have large data plans or unlimited data, this policy can unblock devices from getting updates.

This policy is accessible through the Update setting in the user interface or Group Policy.

<!--Description-->
Allows the IT admin to manage whether Automatic Updates accepts updates signed by entities other than Microsoft when the update is found at the UpdateServiceUrl location. This policy supports using WSUS for 3rd party software and patch distribution.

Supported operations are Get and Replace.

This policy is specific to desktop and local publishing via WSUS for 3rd party updates (binaries and updates not hosted on Microsoft Update) and allows IT to manage whether Automatic Updates accepts updates signed by entities other than Microsoft when the update is found on an intranet Microsoft update service location.

<!--/Description-->
<!--SupportedValues-->
The following list shows the supported values:

-   0 – Not allowed or not configured. Updates from an intranet Microsoft update service location must be signed by Microsoft.
-   1 – Allowed. Accepts updates received through an intranet Microsoft update service location, if they are signed by a certificate found in the "Trusted Publishers" certificate store of the local computer.

Specifies whether the device could use Microsoft Update, Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), or Microsoft Store.

Even when Windows Update is configured to receive updates from an intranet update service, it will periodically retrieve information from the public Windows Update service to enable future connections to Windows Update, and other services like Microsoft Update or the Microsoft Store

Enabling this policy will disable that functionality, and may cause connection to public services such as the Microsoft Store to stop working.

> [!NOTE]
> This policy applies only when the desktop or device is configured to connect to an intranet update service using the "Specify intranet Microsoft update service location" policy.

Added in Windows 10, version 1709, but was added to 1607 and 1703 service releases. Do not allow update deferral policies to cause scans against Windows Update. If this policy is not enabled, then configuring deferral policies will result in the client unexpectedly scanning Windows update.  With the policy enabled, those scans are prevented, and users can configure deferral policies as much as they like.

For more information about dual scan, see [Demystifying "Dual Scan"](https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/wsus/2017/05/05/demystifying-dual-scan/) and [Improving Dual Scan on 1607](https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/wsus/2017/08/04/improving-dual-scan-on-1607/).

This is the same as the Group Policy in Windows Components > Window Update "Do not allow update deferral policies to cause scans against Windows Update."

Value type is integer. Supported operations are Add, Get, Replace, and Delete.

Added in Windows 10, version 1703. Allows the IT Admin to specify the deadline in days before automatically scheduling and executing a pending restart outside of active hours. The deadline can be set between 2 and 30 days from the time the restart becomes pending. If configured, the pending restart will transition from Auto-restart to Engaged restart (pending user schedule) to be automatically executed within the specified period.  If no deadline is specified or deadline is set to 0, the restart will not be automatically executed and will remain Engaged restart (pending user scheduling).

Supported values are 2-30 days.

Added in the April service release of Windows 10, version 1607. Allows Windows Update Agent to determine the download URL when it is missing from the metadata.  This scenario will occur when intranet update service stores the metadata files but the download contents are stored in the ISV file cache (specified as the <a href="#update-updateserviceurlalternate">alternate download URL</a>).

> [!NOTE]
> This setting should only be used in combination with an alternate download URL and configured to use ISV file cache.  This setting is used when the intranet update service does not provide download URLs in the update metadata for files which are available on the alternate download server.

<!--Description-->
Added in the January service release of Windows 10, version 1607. Specifies an alternate intranet server to host updates from Microsoft Update. You can then use this update service to automatically update computers on your network.

This setting lets you specify a server on your network to function as an internal update service. The Automatic Updates client will search this service for updates that apply to the computers on your network.

To use this setting, you must set two server name values: the server from which the Automatic Updates client detects and downloads updates, and the server to which updated workstations upload statistics. You can set both values to be the same server.  An optional server name value can be specified to configure Windows Update agent, and download updates from an alternate download server instead of WSUS Server.

Value type is string and the default value is an empty string, "". If the setting is not configured, and if Automatic Updates is not disabled by policy or user preference, the Automatic Updates client connects directly to the Windows Update site on the Internet.

> [!Note]  
> If the "Configure Automatic Updates" Group Policy is disabled, then this policy has no effect.  
> If the "Alternate Download Server" Group Policy is not set, it will use the WSUS server by default to download updates.  
> This policy is not supported on Windows RT. Setting this policy will not have any effect on Windows RT PCs.
