  Hi,

  There is a policy named "Delay restart for scheduled installations".By enabling this policy,you can set the default wait time as you want.The default value is 15 min.

  Regards,

  I am finding that the max time for the Delay restart for scheduled installations is 30 minutes. Has anyone found a way to make it greater than that?

  That is the maximum possible value. It's documented. Been that way since the creation of the AU client some dozen years ago.

  Thanks Lawrence.

  Clarence. I like you thought I could set it to any two digit number, as the form has two digits open. However it does automatically adjust to the highest allowable two digit number which is 30.
