Can you make UVK check windows updates?
Not really wanting you to do it, just wanting to know if you CAN do it.

It is not "Can it be done?" but rather, "How can we do it?"

Re: Fred, This is imprtant...
And check ninite for possible updates to specific programs?
Re: Fred, This is imprtant...
Hey guys.
Yes I can make UVK check for updates, it'll be available in the future C++ UVK. In the meantime you can one of the scripts Jim and I posted in this topic:
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1271&p=5282&hilit= ... ates#p5282
Oops! I just realized I forgot to upload my script in that topic. Here it is:
As for the second question, if it can be done through a command, it would be easy, otherwise, you'd need automation. Which programs are you talking about? Maybe I can add them to TTS...

One thing we humans have in common is that we are all different. So, if you think you're weird because you're different from everyone else, then we are all weird.

You'd need Ninite Pro for that to work -- here's my "UpdateOnly" command:
NiniteOne.exe /silent /updateonly /disableshortcuts /allusers /cleancache
NiniteOne.exe /silent /updateonly /disableshortcuts /allusers /cleancache

Re: Fred, This is imprtant...
Fred,
Myself and Fred Jr have been looking at other MSP options. To be honest I think Xander is as well. The reason I ask you that question was it's pretty important that an RMM application have the ability to check for and do windows updates. The rest of it is pretty much all the same. The only exception being managed AV but that can be worked with.
I think I am going to wind up paying someone for this service and since I am already working with you for services, if you came up with a functional RMM, I would just pay you and it can easily be recurring revenue for you. Right now I am looking really hard to find a suitable RMM and certainly don't want to count you out on this.
I know that you are working on UVK and you have plans to do something like an RMM. This windows update thing is very important though and if this is something you can handle and you are serious about giving us a quality RMM tool I would like to include you in my future plans. I realize this will take time so I will probably have to go with another option for now.

Re: Fred, This is imprtant...
You can do windows updates through TeamViewer. You do have to set it for unattended so it will survive a reboot though. It would be nice to see Fred do a RMM though. I bet he'd get it right. (TeamViewer has got it right. It's just - Who can afford it?)
