SYMPTOMS
When you install an update on a computer that is running Desktop Standard PolicyMaker Software Update, an error message is logged in the Software Deployment Manager log file (Sdmcomp.log). This issue occurs if the following conditions are true:
- The update is for a Microsoft product.
- The update requires that you restart your computer.
When this issue occurs, the Software Deployment Manager cancels the required restart for the updated Microsoft product.
Note You can view the error message in the Sdmcomp.log in the following folder:
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\AutoProf\SDM\Trace\
CAUSE
This issue occurs because the Software Deployment Manager does not handle the error message correctly.
