Unavailable option "Check for updates managed by your system administrator"

We often don't see this option until we click "install updates" prompting a terribly long search by Microsoft.  Our updates are managed in this way and there is no reason for us to go to MS for them.  How can I avoid this forced process and always have "check for updates managed by your system administrator" as an available option.

I wear a lot of hats - Developer, Database Administrator, Help Desk, etc., so I know a lot of things but not a lot about one thing. Experts Exchange gives me answers from people who do know a lot about one thing, in a easy to use platform." -Todd S.

You need to review your Windows update GPO, if you do not have one already to need to look in the following location:

GPO > Computer Configuration > Policies > Admin Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update

you may have to drill down more to set times for checks etc. if you have a specific setting you want to resolve please let us know
