I have never used WUMTWrapperScriptConfigurator. My WUMT does not check for updates automatically, but my VBScript does. I have disabled "Windows Updates" by running the commands in post #473 .Callender said:
Yesterday I successfully installed "2018-03 Cumulative Update" when WUMT was not running.Callender said:
Windows Update said "We couldn't install some updates because the PC was turned off" when I was NOT installing any updates.Callender said:
The screenshot in post #546 was taken BEFORE I installed the updates.
The time shown in post #546 is "3 Days Ago" , and I installed the updates yesterday as shown below:

Look when you launch WUMT even if you never launched WUMT Configurator it will change WU settings.Matthew Wai said:
Open Windows Update MiniTool.cmd with your text editor and read the contents. There is absolutely no point in manually running the commands in Post 473. You will also notice that the script is designed to use Windows Update MiniTool in "auto search for updates" mode in the GUI.
From the script contents:
This means that if you need to install an update that requires a reboot to complete then you need to use configurator. It's your choice on whether you leave WU service running or not. Personally I do not leave it running except when installing updates.If you need to install .Net 3.5 or use the Windows 10 Store or something that needs wuauservrunning, run the script and after it enables wuauserv and starts WUMT, install what you needafter WUMT checks for updates, before closing WUMT

Where is "Windows Update MiniTool.cmd"? I cannot find it.Callender said:
I cannot find "configurator" either. Where is it?Callender said:
The point is that UsoClient.exe cannot check for updates. In the screenshot below, the error code "0x80070005" means "Access is denied".Callender said:
In WUMT, "Windows Update" had been set to "Automatically", but "Windows Update" still failed to download updates, as shown in the screenshot in post #549.Callender said:

I see yet another way to block WU, through the firewall (happens to be from the WUMT English forum discussion thread). I haven't tried it:
From: WUMT Wrapper script - controls windows update service | Page 9 | My Digital Life Forums--- Block Windows Update ----- Permit/UnBlock Windows Update ---Code:netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="Block Windows Update" dir=Out action=Block program="C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe" service=wuauserv protocol=TCP remoteport=80,443
Code:netsh advfirewall firewall delete rule name="Block Windows Update"

Thanks, I will try that. I also noticed that that message "Some settings are managed by your organization" doesn't show up on Windows 10 Home following WUMT config. We'll just have to see if the behavior differs.Callender said:
