But there is something wrong in this article:

When I disable “Re-prompt for restart with scheduled installations” option via Group Policy Editor, I get ANOTHER registry key created under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\
WindowsUpdate\AU\

I got:

“RebootRelaunchTimeoutEnabled”=dword:00000000

instead of this one (as in article):

“NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers”=dword:00000001

My OS is Windows XP Professional SP2.

P.S.
2 Joel:
If this folder doesn’t exist, then don’t worry, just create it. In Windows Registry there are a lots of places, where entire folders or keys do not exist if it was never used. Windows creates those folders and keys automatically when it need it for the first time.

I assume that you do have Automatic Updates turned on and if you do you could try creating the folders in the registry. I looked all over and I cannot find an alternate way of doing this.
