Hi,
We have Automatic Windows update configured via GPO , which contains below settings
I could see, servers are properly configured with settings in registry based on GPO configuration , still servers are getting rebooted in different timings also I want clarification on considering week of the month.
Could please provide me explanation on how to calculate each week of the month(Windows update GPO) considering Feb 2022 as a month.
First week of the month Disabled
Second week of the month Disabled
Third week of the month Enabled
Fourth week of the month Disabled

Hello,
In the thread below you have good explanation on how it works, based on it you should consider a full week in your calculation so if we take feb22 we have 3 weeks in it

Hi Clement, Thanks for your response.
I had gone through the link, so i had confusion on this Month calendar weeks. However, thanks for providing info about feb month .
Are you able to see any mistakes in abve configuration image i attached? (Ignore WSUS servername, it's modified)
I could see some servers even updated with correct settings in registry, not getting rebooted on time based on GPO configuration.
Be aware that some changes exist in WSUS client side configuration below you will find the article regarding that :

In the current configuration I don't see the parameter "Always automatically restart at the scheduled time"
