1. Client Side targeting Specifies the target group name or names that should be used toreceive updates from an intranet Microsoft update service.If the status is set to Enabled, the specified target group information is sent to the intranet

Microsoft update service which uses it to determine which updates should be deployed tothis computer.

note: in order for this to work, you need to create groups in the WSUS server.

3. No auto-restart Specifies that to complete a scheduled installation, Automatic Updateswill wait for the computer to be restarted by any user who is logged on, instead of

causing the computer to restart automatically.If the status is set to Enabled, Automatic Updates will not restart a computerautomatically during a scheduled installation if a user is logged in to the computer.

Instead, Automatic Updates will notify the user to restart the computer.

4. Automatic updates detection frequency Specifies the hours that Windows will use todetermine how long to wait before checking for available updates. The exact wait time is

determined by using the hours specified here minus zero to twenty percent of the hoursspecified. For example, if this policy is used to specify a 20 hour detection frequency,then all clients to which this policy is applied will check for updates anywhere between

16 and 20 hours.If the status is set to Enabled, Windows will check for available updates at the specified
