We use normal windows licenses on some of our machines. When windows update assistant comes on (which we can't stop anymore as of Windows-As-A-Service), it wants a security update installed. It doesn't turn back on without user interaction currently which we can't do.
We want the following flow if possible. A few solutions we've found works for units on our internal network, or a windows server or enterprise editions instead of home edition.
- Go onto computer with teamviewer
- Say "please update"
- It restarts, installs updates, with no user interaction whatsoever, restarts again
- Logs back in normally.
But it doesn't seem to happen this way, always sticks on the 3rd step.
EDIT: the problem is that even upon successful update, it asks to accept license before actually starting.
Answer
What you want is not possible.
Windows 10 Home edition is simply not equipped with the settings. Your problem is that some windows updates ask for permission to install, and this permission flag can be altered using group policy. Unfortunately, Group Policy is not a function of Windows 10 Home, which is why you also cannot make the pc join a domain.
Either live with it, or better, upgrade the affected machines to Windows 10 Pro.
Small note: Windows 10 Home is supposed to be used at home. At home people want to accept these so they are in control. In a work environment, the corporation wants to be in control, which is why you can use features like Group Policy to automatically accept these, etc.
