Feature Request: Pending Reboot #55

Open MisterPhoton opened 3 years ago

MisterPhoton commented 3 years ago

Hi, great work on this, looking forward to getting it up and running on my workstation.

Something I'd love to see added is a Pending Reboot sensor - would be nice to be able to trigger a reboot if, for instance. (pending reboot + workstation idle + weekend + night time hours).

Thanks for the kind words!

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by Pending Reboot. Do you mean what happens after Windows Update has downloaded a new update?

MisterPhoton commented 3 years ago

Yes - there are registry flags that are set by Windows after either a Windows Update or other change that requires a restart.

The RMM tool we use at my office has a flag for it so I can bug people to restart their computer after an update. 😄

Oh sweet! Thanks for the extra information.
