Hi,

I created a ADR for deploying monthly Update on the Windows Server 2022. It is working fine, but my problem is with rebooting the Server. I have a deadline for 14 days. If I go to the Software center and click "Install" , it is installing will reboot after installing.

But is does not work.

Is there any other way to say, if the Update is installed, it should reboot on the weekend or after 12:00 PM? Is there any way to select "restart" button and put there a time?

like here

    "If I go to the Software center and click "Install"" -- that is why it triggers the reboot prompt. You, the human, are electing to install it now. Once the install is complete, then the prompt occurs, and no, it won't 'just wait until the weekend'. You the human have spoken!

    If you want CM to "just do things during the Service Window', then you have to let it do so. Don't go in and manually trigger it to install from Software Center. When you do that (or trigger it remotely, which can be done with powershell commands if you so desire), you've bypassed the required deadlines, and the Service Window things around "what to do if the deadline is before my service window". As an admin, you manually bypassed all of that by clicking on it in Software Center.
