Force workstation to install patch immediately

chaldz

Is there a way to instruct a workstation to install a patch now instead of the PC waiting for it's normal schedule?

This would be the primary purpose of the Update Management tool in Patch Manager.

You can highlight the patch(s) you want to push, then right click it and pick New Update List Template. Save it as a template.

Then right click the PC(s) and chose Update Management (not the wizard). In there you can choose Load Update List Template, and then install the updates in the list, even if they are not approved.
