In my company we have about 50 Windows 7 Pro X64 PCs.  I use System Center Essentials 2007 to update them with patches.  I have noticed in the last couple of months that my clients no longer reboot automatically after receiving updates.  A couple of days

after approving some updates, I will look at my clients in SCE and it shows that they all received the updates "Pending Reboot".  And unless I ask my staff to manually reboot (or they already did for other reasons), clients could remain in this state for weeks. 

 

 

My servers reboot fine and are updated through SCE as well.  But I don't understand why the PCs won't reboot. 

 

 

My PCs are all Dells from 0-5 years old, running Office 2010 x86 and a few other small apps.  Pretty simple.

 

Thanks.
