How to install all downloaded Windows Updates with the wusa.exe?

motc7 · Feb 20, 2012

I want to be able from a command line install all downloaded windows updates and then shutdown the computer. I know there are GUI settings for this, but how would I do it via command line?

Edit: As an fyi I've tried things from the pkgmgr.exe and wusa.exe utilities in Windows 7, but I cannot seem to get it to start installing the downloaded updates. Any help is appreciated!

It's in German. Got anything in English?

Put all the MSU files into a folder, and then run this batch from within that folder:

Code:

@ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL ENABLEEXTENSIONS ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
FOR /R "%~dp0" %%A IN (*.MSU) DO (
        ECHO= Installing %%~nA
        >NUL TIMEOUT /t 3
        WUSA "%%A" /quiet /norestart)
ECHO Press any key to restart
>NUL PAUSE
SHUTDOWN.EXE /s /t 5
GOTO :EOF
