Windows Update Setting Query

Does anyone know how to write a report or collection that will tell you whether or not the client machine has "Give me updates for other Microsoft products when I update Windows" checked?

A collection could probably be done using a Registry scanner. I believe that setting is stored in a Key. But there are a couple different places to look for it in the registry. I don't know off hand, but could probably google it and find out.

I'd start there.

Hey Stephen!

I was thinking the same thing but my Google ninja is apparantly subpar today. I'll keep looking.

Thanks!

Thanks! I think we came across that at the same time.

See you for the webcast tomorrow.

Thanks again!
