Windows Update PowerShell Module is designed for advanced users to manage Windows Updates on your computer.

Windows Update PowerShell Module contains a collection of scripts to check, download and install or remove updates from local machines. Particularly useful on computers in core edition.

The module can be installed manually by downloading the zip file and extracting in two places:

%USERPROFILE%\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules
%WINDIR%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules

The files included are named to tell you what they do including:

Add-WUOfflineSync
Add-WUServiceManager
Get-WUHistory
Get-WUInstall
Get-WUInstallerStatus
Get-WUList
Hide-WUUpdate
Invoke-WUInstall
Get-WURebootStatus
Get-WUServiceManager

Update-WUModule



Because this uses PowerShell, popular with geeks, IT and other computer administrators, you won't find a graphical user interface. Only advanced users, with PowerShell knowledge, should use this. Otherwise, we have an entire category for Windows update issues here.
