Yes, the gpupdate does work while the configmgr client is in Prov mode. The problem is it will not complete the computer policy refresh because of a timeout issue. You have to use the /wait switch.
I just added this and tested it a week or two ago. It works fine in our environment and does successfully update policy. Our specific issue was a local admin group that wasn't being added in a timely manner.

It never completed. . .just sat there and hung. To solve the issue, I am trying the following: * Create a batch file that imports the Cert and the AcceptTrustedPublishersCerts registry entry * Create a package/program for the batch file * Add a step in the TS to run the program prior to the ZTIWindowsUpdate script I am hoping that will correct the issue and not cause other problems once WIndows is up and running.

An OSD task sequence executes the ZTIWindowsUpdate.wsf script from MDT. In the CM07 environment, it works without issue. In CM12, it fails due to not being able to verify digital signatures for third-party publishers. The environment uses WSUS with a third-party product. The certs and proper registry setting are deployed via GPO. It is my understanding that the TS will update group policy after it exits, so the system will not get the certs and registry entries that are applied via GPO prior to the ZTIWindowsUpdte script running. How do I get the script to work in an environment with third-party updates being deployed via WSUS? I've thought about adding a package to the TS that installs the certs and registry settings. Is there a better way? Any insight is greatly appreciated. If my description is unclear let me know as well. Thanks!
