Update WSUS database in background

I do my database updates on my main machine weekly. This usually takes place while I am doing other work, and so command windows frequently pop up at inopportune times. It would be a great advantage if WSUS could do it's updating using command windows in the background. I'm referring to the updating of the WSUS database, not updating the machine.

Thanks and best wishes,

A: Yes. Please edit the UpdateGenerator.ini file and add an entry/line "minimizeondownload=Enabled" to the "[Miscellaneous]" section.

Beautiful! Thanks Harry!

Maybe this should be a check box on the interface?
