AutoUpdateCfg_Help="Specifies whether this computer will receive security
updates and other important downloads through the Windows automatic updating
service.\n\nThis setting lets you specify if automatic updates are enabled
on this computer. If the service is enabled, you must select one of the four
options in the Group Policy Setting:\n\n2 = Notify before downloading any
updates and notify again before installing them.\n\nWhen Windows finds updates
that apply to this computer, an icon appears in the status area with a message
that updates are ready to be downloaded. Clicking the icon or message provides
the option to select the specific updates to download. Windows then downloads
the selected updates in the background. When the download is complete, the
icon appears in the status area again, with notification that the updates
are ready to be installed. Clicking the icon or message provides the option
to select which updates to install.\n\n3 = (Default setting) Download the
updates automatically and notify when they are ready to be installed\n\nWindows
finds updates that apply to your computer and downloads these updates in
the background (the user is not notified or interrupted during this process).
When the download is complete, the icon appears in the status area, with
notification that the updates are ready to be installed. Clicking the icon
or message provides the option to select which updates to install.\n\n4 =
Automatically download updates and install them on the schedule specified
below\n\nSpecify the schedule using the options in the Group Policy Setting.
If no schedule is specified, the default schedule for all installations will
be everyday at 3:00 AM. If any of the updates require a restart to complete
the installation, Windows will restart the computer automatically. (If a
user is logged on to the computer when Windows is ready to restart, the user
will be notified and given the option to delay the restart.)\n\n5 = Allow
local administrators to select the configuration mode that Automatic Updates
should notify and install updates\n\nWith this option, the local administrators
will be allowed to use the Automatic Updates control panel to select a configuration
option of their choice. For example they can choose their own scheduled installation
time. Local administrators will not be allowed to disable Automatic Updates'
configuration.\n\nTo use this setting, click Enabled, and then select one
of the options (2, 3, 4 or 5). If you select 4, you can set a recurring schedule
(if no schedule is specified, all installations will occur everyday at 3:00
AM).\n\nIf the status is set to Enabled, Windows recognizes when this computer
is online and uses its Internet connection to search the Windows Update Web
site for updates that apply to this computer.\n\nIf the status is set to
Disabled, any updates that are available on the Windows Update Web site must
be downloaded and installed manually by going to
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com.\n\nIf
the status is set to Not Configured, use of Automatic Updates is not specified

the server from which the Automatic Updates client detects and downloads

You can set both values to be the same server.\n\nIf the status is set to
Enabled, the Automatic Updates client connects to the specified intranet
Microsoft update service, instead of Windows Update, to search for and download
updates. Enabling this setting means that end users in your organization
don't have to go through a firewall to get updates, and it gives you the
opportunity to test updates before deploying them.\n\nIf the status is set
