Does update happen if logged off?

01-04-2006

If I have my Windows XP PC configured to automatically get Windows
Updates and the computer is on but no user is logged in, would the
updates be downloaded and installed?

Hi,

Yes, and the computer will be automatically re-booted if a boot
is necessary to finish the installation.

To install items from Windows Update, you must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the Administrators group. If your computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may also prevent you from completing this procedure.	CaptainJack	Windows Update	2	04-15-2004 01:11 PM
