Update-OSMedia

Update-OSMedia is used to apply Microsoft Updates to an OSImport or an existing OSMedia.  Start by using the following command without any parameters
Update-OSMedia
A GridView list of existing OSImport or OSMedia that need to be updated will be displayed.  You can select multiple Operating Systems to update.  Select an Operating System and press OK
When executing Update-OSMedia without any parameters, only information will be display (no actions will take place).  In this example, I have not downloaded any updates, so they show 'Missing'
Download
To download the required Microsoft Updates, you can use the OSDBuilder function
Download OSMediaUpdates
or you can simply add the Download parameter
Update-OSMedia -Download
This will automatically download the required Microsoft Updates that are needed for the selected Operating Systems
Execute
Before you Update-OSMedia, make sure you have your OneDrive Sync Client updated first
Download OneDrive
Then simply use the Execute parameter to begin the process
Update-OSMedia -Execute
You can use both the Download and Execute parameters together to complete both in a single step with the following command:
Update-OSMedia -Download -Execute
This process will take between 30 minutes and 2 hours to complete on a good system. Plan on taking a break while the process is running and make sure you do not have an AntiVirus On Access Scan running
