Report of each machines automatic update settings

[greavette]

Hello batchpatch forum,

I’m looking for a way through batchpatch to give me a report of each of our machines automatic update settings. Each virtual machine in our environment should be set to download and install updates from our WSUS server. Through batchpatch I’ve confirmed that all our VM’s are using our WSUS server. But I want to confirm their automatic update settings.

Can batchpatch provide that detail to me?

Thank you in advance for any information you can provide.

The group policy configuration is saved in the registry. You can view it using BatchPatch by selecting ‘Actions > Get information > Get registry key/value’ and then input the following:

Registry key: HKLMSOFTWAREPoliciesMicrosoftWindowsWindowsUpdateAU

Value name: AUOptions
