For the following workers:

tlab-wpm-windows-arm64-01
tlab-wpm-windows-arm64-02

Manually, you can do:

Open the Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc).
Go to
- Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update > Legacy Policies > No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installations
- Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update > Manage end user experience > Configure Automatic Updates
Double-click on “No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installations”.
Select Enabled, and then select OK.

Or we can use commands, open an elevated CMD prompt:

reg add "HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU" /v NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
reg add "HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU" /v AUOptions /t REG_DWORD /d 3 /f

# 0 Let the local administrator to choose the settings
# 1 Means never check
# 2 Check but don't download neither install
# 3 Check, download but don't install
# 4 Download and install automatically

This should be embedded in a Salt state
