I need help configuring the group policy, always automatically restart at the scheduled time. I set the policy to enabled and I did net get a restart timer, and after 15 minutes pc did not restart nothing happened! I also want to check, download, and install updates automatically but, for some reason it is also not working. I want to do this so that way my PC will always be up to date even when I am not at my PC.

Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks! @LinusTech or any LMG staff can you please help if you have knowledge on the topic?

Honestly if you want your PC to "always be up to date even when I am not at my PC" then the normal Windows 10 update settings should do you fine, provided you set your active hours and such. I've had my PC set up that way and haven't had issues with updates or messing (too much) with group policy. About the only thing I turned on in group policy was no auto-restarting during active hours I think? I'm not sure.

Windows never downloads, installs, or restarts to update automatically, I always have to do it manually by clicking check for updates.
