Answer 1

Hello,

Yes, it is possible to get the last update install date using PowerShell. You can use the Get-HotFix cmdlet to retrieve information about installed hotfixes, including the installation date . Here's an example of how you can use it:

Get-HotFix | Sort-Object InstalledOn -Descending | Select-Object -First 1

This command will return the most recent hotfix installed on the system, including the installation date.

You can use the method from ChatGPT :

$updateSession = New-Object -ComObject Microsoft.Update.Session; $updateSearcher = $updateSession.CreateUpdateSearcher(); $historyCount = $updateSearcher.GetTotalHistoryCount(); $updates = $updateSearcher.QueryHistory(0, $historyCount) | Where-Object { $_.ResultCode -eq 2 } | Sort-Object -Property Date -Descending | Select-Object -First 1; if ($updates) { "Last Update Installed on: $($updates.Date)"; "Update Title: $($updates.Title)" } else { Write-Output "No updates found in the history." }
