Turning on Automatic Updates

[Ginnie Eastman]

I went to
http://www.microsoft.com/security/protect/windows2000/updat
es.asp

to get instructions to turn on Automatic Updates for
Windows 2000. Although the page says it is for the
Windows 2000 Operating System, the instructions are for
XP, not 2000, and XP is quite different.

Does anyone know how to turn on Auto Updates for Windows
2000?

Auto Updates should be in control panel. You can turn it on there.

The option is available only if SP3 is installed and you
can find it in the control panel. Double click automatic
updates icon and set a schedule.
