llewxam Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Sorry to bring back such an old thread, but I've sat on this code for a long time and recently started playing with it. I have been tweaking it for my own purposes, and wonder if there is a way to determine the percent completed for each update. I would also like to know if there is a way to get a return message for an update that failed, and several updates fail to install properly such as Silverlight and Security Essentials which cause nasty bonks. I am testing primarily on Windows XP. Thanks for any suggestions, and if this script has been updated in the last year and a half I'd love to see where it is now!

llewxam Posted September 2, 2013 Posted September 2, 2013 Here I go necroposting again, but this time with an update. Thanks to spudw2k for the initial code! I have recoded this tool primarily so it will restart the machine when needed and keep running itself until all updates are done. Could have done it via registry, just thought All UsersStartup was easier at the time. Works very well, only occasional hiccups like it can't tell that it finished an update and fails to move on, but is a very helpful tool for those of us who have dozens of reloads to do every week!

llewxam Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 LOL, just a coincidence, it is used on XP and above, 7 was just the build number. Occasionally on XP it will not seem to know an update has finished but in general works well.

mitsucats Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Hallo I have just try to test this cool software for auto updates winodws but i run into a little problem, when i run the script it start to download all the Language packs and them i dont need to have install is there a way around thins problem ?
llewxam Posted October 5, 2013 Posted October 5, 2013 (edited) Hallo I have just try to test this cool software for auto updates winodws but i run into a little problem, when i run the script it start to download all the Language packs and them i dont need to have install is there a way around thins problem ? What version of Windows is it? If Vista or 7 Ultimate I could understand it doing that, since (I think) those are the only versions that list language packs in the updates. This tool downloads and installs all critical and optional updates (which I love!), but I can understand why this would not be something you would want. The fix is actually going to be very easy! All you have to do is look for a common word in the description of those updates, such as "language". Add that word to the $BannedList at the top of the code, and you're done. So, as I wrote it, the line reads: $BannedList = StringSplit("Essentials|Silverlight|Malicious|Bing", "|") You would probably just need to make the line: $BannedList = StringSplit("Essentials|Silverlight|Malicious|Bing|Language", "|") Enjoy! Ian PS - Please do post back with the correct word that prevents the downloading and installation of the language packs so I can include it in the code posted here!

spudw2k Posted December 23, 2015 Author Posted December 23, 2015 Wow, this script resurfaced again huh? Frankly I'm surprised it still worked somewhat, not just because AutoIt has updated, but so has Windows. I've grown a lot as an AutoIt scripter since then and felt like this script could use a face lift. I've updated/rewrote the code to incorporate some standards and best practices I've adopted. I also left the old script up so people can compare the two and see what code improvement looks like over time...in this very specific instance. Might be eye-opening for some. See my first post in this thread with the updated code.@llewxam - Might want to take a looksie just to see what I did. argumentum 1 Spoiler Things I've Made: Always On Top Tool ◊ AU History ◊ Deck of Cards ◊ HideIt ◊ ICU ◊ Icon Freezer ◊ Ipod Ejector ◊ Junos Configuration Explorer ◊ Link Downloader ◊ MD5 Folder Enumerator ◊ PassGen ◊ Ping Tool ◊ Quick NIC ◊ Read OCR ◊ RemoteIT ◊ SchTasksGui ◊ SpyCam ◊ System Scan Report Tool ◊ System UpTime ◊ Transparency Machine ◊ VMWare ESX Builder Misc Code Snippets: ADODB Example ◊ CheckHover ◊ Detect SafeMode ◊ DynEnumArray ◊ GetNetStatData ◊ HashArray ◊ IsBetweenDates ◊ Local Admins ◊ Make Choice ◊ Recursive File List ◊ Remove Sizebox Style ◊ Retrieve PNPDeviceID ◊ Retrieve SysListView32 Contents ◊ Set IE Homepage ◊ Tickle Expired Password ◊ Transpose Array Projects: Drive Space Usage GUI ◊ LEDkIT ◊ Plasma_kIt ◊ Scan Engine Builder ◊ SpeeDBurner ◊ SubnetCalc Cool Stuff: AutoItObject UDF ◊ Extract Icon From Proc ◊ GuiCtrlFontRotate ◊ Hex Edit Funcs ◊ Run binary ◊ Service_UDF

llewxam Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Cool, glad to see it has been re-worked. I'm out of the IT world now however, so I don't have dozens of machines to test it on to offer feedback. On my home PC, Win10Pro, the "Finding Needed Updates" SplashText never went away, and no updates were found. It sat for several minutes before I killed the task. The old version didn't fare any better though, so Win10 may not offer the same ability to tap in to the Update service. If there is anything I can do to help figure out if Win10 has an issue please let me know.

spudw2k Posted December 28, 2015 Author Posted December 28, 2015 I've seen some issues in environments that use non-standard WSUS or WindowsUpdate. I've never had a chance to track down those issues, but I have seen this not work on some machines. I'm not sure if that is applicable to your environment or not. I looked through the code and best I can tell I "validate" the Search Obj just before the .GetTotalHistoryCount method is called. Beyond that I'm not sure how else to "validate" the object before calling the method. I'll look to see what other properties or methods may be available to validate the object before calling .GetTotal... Thanks for trying it out and bringing it to my attention as it does not occur on the machines I've tested with lately.

My PC did bring up two items detected as needed and I was able to select one I wanted to download and install, and did so within the tool. I'm curious...if you use Windows Update, does it show patches are needed? I wonder if no patches are needed is causing a weird loop or condition that is keeping the function open. On another computer I end up with "No patches needed" in the list view after a couple of min, which is the intended result if in fact no patches are detected as needed.I appreciate your feedback and the time you took to test.
