Interpreting AUState Values
Date - 07 Feb 2003
|
| The Automatic Update client maintains its operational state in the following registry key: |
| Key: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update\ |
| Value: AUState |
| |
| AUState values |
| 0 | Initial 24 hour timeout (the AU wizard does not run until 24 hours after it first detects an Internet connection) |
| 1 | Waiting for user to run AU wizard |
| 2 | Detect pending |
| 3 | Download pending (waiting for user to accept pre-download prompt) |
| 4 | Download in progress |
| 5 | Install pending |
| 6 | Install complete |
| 7 | Disabled (Adoptions will also be set to a value of 0x1) |
| 8 | Reboot pending (updates that require a reboot were installed but the reboot was declined - AU will not do anything until the reboot occurs and this value is cleared) |
