Hello

I would like to configure my company's pc's to install windows updates on 3am (when no'ones working so it doesn't bother anyone) but will windows update automaticly boot up pc's that are powered off?

. Windows Update will not boot a powered-off PC. Netither will any other utility. You can find WOL (Wake on LAN), or third-party utilities that will resume from a Suspend state. But not power-off unless your BIOS supports, and you create, a Wake-on event.

. Please see what is available with the free Microsoft SUS/WUS server for updates: (Read the whole site).
 
Hello bcastner

Thanks for your response...
I'll look into this Software Update Service.
