One response to “Check for Windows Updates command line tool”
i found the command line tool WuInstall (freeware: http://wuinstall.com).
with that you can search for certain updates and the output will be shown in the cmd.
for example the command “WuInstall /search /classification SC” searches for critical and security updates.
You can also download and install these updates with that tool.
