Had a Win 2008 Enterprise SP2 server update itself and reboot over the weekend. Problem is, as far as I can tell, it is *not *configured to autoupdate.
Windows Update shows "Download updates but let me choose whether to install them". Local security policy shows everything under Windows update as not configured. HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate does not exist. Looking back in the event log, it does appear this was a scheduled event: Installation Ready: The following updates are downloaded and ready for installation. This computer is currently scheduled to install these updates on Sunday, December 19, 2010 at 3:00 AM: - Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - December 2010 (KB890830) - Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 8 for Windows Server 2008 (KB2416400) - Security Update for Windows Server 2008 (KB2305420) - Update for Windows Server 2008 (KB2443685) - Update for Internet Explorer for Windows Server 2008 (KB2467659) - Security Update for Windows Server 2008 (KB2442962) - Security Update for Windows Server 2008 (KB2423089) - Security Update for Windows Server 2008 (KB2296199) - Security Update for Windows Server 2008 (KB2436673) Beneath "Download updates but let me choose whether to install them" on the Windows update settings it does show Sunday at 3:00 as the scheduled time, but it is grayed out, presumably because it is set to "let me choose whether to install them". Any ideas? Am I looking in the correct places?
