Run on client machine to see the status of user profiles on a Windows10 machine
Type the following PowerShell command :
gwmi win32_userprofile | select localpath, roamingpath, status
So, you deploy a GPO to Window 10 clients, but your in a hurry to get the clients to check in…
As a SysAdmin for many years I would log on to a client, open command prompt and type :
wuauclt /detectnow (Windows 7 / Windows Server 2008/2012 clients)
In Windows 10 you will notice that it doesn’t do anything and doesn’t show you anything. (As shown above)
(confirmed on https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/yongrhee/2017/11/09/wuauclt-detectnow-in-windows-10-and-windows-server-2016/)
An example of “Whats New” in Windows 10, and Windows Server 2016 To check or scan “Windows Update” from the command prompt :
CMD (Run As Administrator)
c:\windows\system32\
UsoClient.exe startscan
And there is more switches….
