UpdatesInterval Specify Day

[zeehaque]

Hi all,

I apologize in advance for what may be a very simple question - can the -UpdatesInterval parameter be used to specify a certain day of the week?

For instance, if we would like to run updates every Friday, is -UpdatesInterval Weekly Friday or something similar possible?

In terms of the -UpdatesInterval Weekly setting, would it run weekly based on the day WAU was installed with that setting on the device?

Thanks!

Hi,
By default, WAU will run on tuesday. You can adjuste this inside the install script before running it. Have a look in the Winget-AutoUpdate-Install.ps1 from line 288 and change the day of week with the one you want:

elseif ($UpdatesInterval -eq "Weekly") {
    $tasktriggers += New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -Weekly -At $UpdatesAtTime -DaysOfWeek 2
}
elseif ($UpdatesInterval -eq "BiWeekly") {
    $tasktriggers += New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -Weekly -At $UpdatesAtTime -DaysOfWeek 2 -WeeksInterval 2
}
elseif ($UpdatesInterval -eq "Monthly") {
    $tasktriggers += New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -Weekly -At $UpdatesAtTime -DaysOfWeek 2 -WeeksInterval 4
}

Is there any way to change the week day afterwards? We provide WAU via MS Store and use the Winterlights fork to configure via intune.

Thanks

Don't use the fork; we don't maintain it here. We provide everything here to run WAU through Intune.

Ok that was just an additional information. I am still curious if it's possible to change the specific day afterwards after having installed it to several devices already?
