Top 15 WuInstall Alternative and Similar Softwares | Dec 2024

Updating Windows systems is one of the routine tasks of an administrator, usually done automatically with or without WSUS. The problem with it is, as we all know, that users are bothered by the time-consuming process of requesting available updates and reboots - not only at Microsoft Patch Day. That is where WuInstall comes in because with WuInstall the administrator (or the user) can decide when he wants to look for updates and if he wants to download and install them.

WuInstall is a command line tool for Windows which enables you to install Windows updates for a certain workstation in a controlled way, by using a command line script instead of the standard Windows update functionality.
