Remarks
Note Starting with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, ScheduledInstallationDay and ScheduledInstallationTime are not supported and will return unreliable values. If you try to modify these properties, the operation will appear to succeed but will have no effect.
Note On Windows RT, you can no longer use the IAutomaticUpdatesSettings::Save method to configure Windows Update settings programmatically. The configuration operation fails if you use Save to set any value other than 4 (aunlScheduledInstallation).
