how can I know whether that machine need all those updates? My ADR is for Windows 7 and my creteria is for Windows 7 too. What do you mean with "how many systems? Do you mean in Devices? If yes I have 4 systems 1) Windows 7 2) Windows 2012 3)Windows 2008 R2 4) Endpoint Protection And I have 3 OS in my SCCM 2012. The most OS are Window 7(70 machine).

Hi all, I have created a new ADR for monthley Windows Update, it does work. My problem ist that after running the ADR I saw in my source Folder for Windows Update 18 Updates.But on the client machine I see only 4 Update in Software center to install. Can anybody tell me why? Regards Keywan

Hi anyweb, Tell me please why the selection "Last 1 day" does not work? And does work the selection "Last 1 month"?

Ok I understand it means I should get on 17th September Updates?Should I change "Last 1 day" or let it be?

Hi All, I did follow the guide here for "Deploying monthley Windows 7Update". My Problem ist the creteria. I select by "Software Update": 1) Date Released or Revised "Last 1 Day" 2) Product "Windows 7" If run my ADR, I did not see any Updates in my Folder. If I change my creteria of Date Released or Revised "Last 1 Day" from "last 1 day" to "Last 1 month", I get immediatley some Updates and I can see Windows 7 Updates in my Folder. Can anybody tell why? And what do I here wrong? best Regards Keywan

Hi Anyweb, I did follow exactly your guide and created two ADRs and I disabled the first ADR and run the second ADR like your guide. But it does not work. I cannot see any update in my Window Update directory and I saw in my logfile "ruleengine.log" and found no errors.

Hi, We have installed the SCCM 2012 SP1 and want to deploy Windows 8.

When I use Task Sequence" I have to boot my Client and press F12, Is the Correct so? 3) What happend with my Application and data files? regards Keywan

Hi anyweb, First of all great tutorial many thanks for your hard work. I created first one named ADR: Window 7 monthley update and follow your descrition until: After running the rule, verify that the Deployment Package is indeed created and when done, right click on the ADR again, and choose Disable.( here I choose create a new deployment package) After runing the ADR:Window 7 monthley update I saw the deploment package is created I disabled the ADR Window 7 monthley update and recreate again a new ADR named: ADR:windows 7 monthley updated and follow exact the description choose this time the Select Deployment Package and follow the wizard. My question is: Which ADR should I run for deploy my updates to the Windows client? The ADR:Window 7 monthley update still is disabled and ADR:windows 7 monthley updated is enabled. For testing I did run (manalley) The ADR:Window 7 monthley update( it is still disabled) and I open my Windows Explorer at this point and browse to the location of my Windows 7 Updates package source location and saw alle updated files. If I go the Software Library workspace, select Software Updates and expand Deployment Packages, select my Windows 7 Updates deployment Package and click on Content Status. I can see that everthing is OK. But my client computer does not receive any windows update. I cannot see any new software update in the Software center. What do I here wrong? Thanks for help. Here you see my compliance information revealed at this point is listed as Unknown (71).

Which instructions please? Where find I that?
