I see. This is a matter of confusing the difference between delaying the restart after installation with the ability to defer the reboot. That is set by the policy Delay Restart for scheduled installations.
The default value of this setting is 5 minutes, but it can be customized to any value minutes. In this instance, however, the user apparently does not have privileges to defer the reboot, but if they did, you can see from the greyed out dropdown that the default value is 10 minutes. The other two options presented in that dropdown are "1 hour" and "4 hours".

Hello, I have read numerous articles on setting up GPOs for WSUS with windows 7 desktop clients - no servers and I have been experiencing problems in getting the desired effects. Thank you and any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thursday, August 7, PM. Enabling Windows Update Power Management to automatically wake up the computer to install scheduled updates. No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installations. Re-prompt for restart with scheduled installations.
Reschedule Automatic Updates scheduled installations. Specify intranet Microsoft update service location. Turn on recommended updates via Automatic Updates. Turn on Software Notifications. Specifies whether Automatic Updates will automatically install updates that don't interrupt Windows services or restart Windows. If the Configure Automatic Updates policy setting is set to Disabled , this policy has no effect.
Specifies whether non-administrative users will receive update notifications based on the Configure Automatic Updates policy setting.
If the Configure Automatic Updates policy setting is disabled or is not configured, this policy setting has no effect. Starting in Windows 8 and Windows RT, this policy setting is enabled by default. In all prior versions of Windows, it's disabled by default. In two situations, the effect of this setting depends on the operating computer: - Hide or Restore updates - Cancel an update installation In Windows Vista or Windows XP, if this policy setting is enabled, users won't see a User Account Control window.
These users don't need elevated permissions to hide, restore, or cancel updates. If this policy setting is not enabled, users will always see a User Account Control window, and they require elevated permissions to hide, restore, or cancel updates.
In Windows 7, this policy setting has no effect. Users will always see an Account Control window, and they require elevated permissions to do these tasks. In Windows 8 and Windows RT, this policy setting has no effect. Disabled Specifies that only logged-on administrators receive update notifications. Note that in Windows 8 and Windows RT, this policy setting is enabled by default.
Options: There are no options for this setting. Specifies whether Automatic Updates accepts updates that are signed by entities other than Microsoft when the update is found on an intranet Microsoft update service location. Updates from a service other than an intranet Microsoft update service must always be signed by Microsoft. This policy setting doesn't affect them. This policy is not supported on Windows RT.
Enabling this policy won't have any effect on computers running Windows RT. Specifies whether a restart timer will always begin immediately after Windows Update installs important updates, instead of first notifying users on the sign-in screen for at least two days.
If the No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installations policy setting is enabled, this policy has no effect.
The restart timer can be configured to start with any value from 15 to minutes. When the timer runs out, the restart will proceed even if the computer has signed-in users. Disabled Specifies that Windows Update won't alter the computer's restart behavior.
Options: If this setting is enabled, you can specify the amount of time that will elapse after updates are installed before a forced computer restart occurs. Specifies the hours that Windows will use to determine how long to wait before checking for available updates. The exact wait time is determined by using the hours specified here minus 0 to 20 percent of the hours specified. For example, if this policy is used to specify a hour detection frequency, all clients to which this policy is applied will check for updates anywhere between 16 and 20 hours.
The Specify intranet Microsoft update service location setting must be enabled for this policy to have effect. If the Configure Automatic Updates policy setting is disabled, this policy has no effect. Options: If this setting is enabled, you can specify the time interval in hours that Windows Update waits before checking for updates.
If this Group Policy setting is enabled, you must select one of the four options that the setting provides. To use this setting, select Enabled. Then in Options under Configure automatic updating , select one of the options 2 , 3 , 4 , or 5. When this setting is enabled, local administrators will be allowed to use the Windows Update control panel item to select a configuration option of their choice.
However, local administrators won't be allowed to disable the configuration for Automatic Updates. Users can then run Windows Update to download and install any available updates. The user is not notified or interrupted during the process. When the downloads are complete, users are notified that updates are ready to install. Users can then run Windows Update to install the downloaded updates.
If no schedule is specified, the default schedule for all installations will be every day at AM. If any updates require a restart to complete the installation, Windows will restart the computer automatically. If a user is signed in to the computer when Windows is ready to restart, the user will be notified and given the option to delay the restart. Note that starting Windows 8, you can set updates to install during automatic maintenance instead of using a specific schedule tied to Windows Update.
Automatic maintenance will install updates when the computer is not in use, and will avoid installing updates when the computer is running on battery power. If automatic maintenance can't install updates within days, Windows Update will install updates right away. Users will then be notified about a pending restart.
A pending restart will happen only if there's no potential for accidental data loss. For setting details, see the Maintenance Scheduler settings section of this article. For example, a configuration option might be whether local administrators can choose a scheduled installation time.
Local administrators won't be allowed to disable the configuration for Automatic Updates. Disabled Specifies that any client updates that are available from the public Windows Update service must be manually downloaded from the internet and installed.
Delay restart for scheduled installations Specifies the amount of time Automatic Updates will wait before proceeding with a scheduled restart. This policy applies only when Automatic Updates is configured to perform scheduled installations of updates. Options: If this setting is enabled, you can specify the amount of time in minutes Automatic Updates waits before proceeding with a scheduled restart.
This policy setting enables you to specify whether the Install Updates and Shut Down option is permitted as the default choice in the Shut Down Windows dialog.
Even when Windows Update is configured to receive updates from an intranet update service, it will periodically retrieve information from the public Windows Update service.
This information will enable future connections to Windows Update and other services, such as Microsoft Update or Microsoft Store. This policy applies only when the computer is configured to connect to an intranet update service by using the Specify intranet Microsoft update service location policy setting.
Users who search for updates by using the Settings app or Control Panel will only see updates from the intranet update service. They won't be presented with the Check online for updates from Windows Update option. The choices available from the Configure Automatic Updating drop-down box are numbered 2 through 5. If Configure Automatic Updates is set to Disabled, updates must be downloaded and installed manually, and this value is 1 which isn't selectable from the drop-down box.
The four choices numbered 2 through 5 are as follows:. This can be used for clients located in remote sites who need to connect to the WSUS server over a slow wide area network connection. However, it has an inherent risk because it depends on the user to download and install the updates. The update is downloaded based on the schedule but not installed. If you don't specify this amount of time, a missed scheduled installation will occur one minute after the computer is next started.
Enable Client-Side Targeting Specifies the group to which the computer is a member. Enable Windows Update Power Management To Automatically Wake Up The System To Install Scheduled Updates If people in your organization tend to shut down their computers when they leave the office, enable this setting to configure computers with supported hardware to start up automatically and install an update at the scheduled time.
Computers will not wake up unless there is an update to be installed. If the computer is on battery power, the computer will return to Sleep automatically after 2 minutes.
