Configuring WPKG with Active Directory, part 4.

Navigate to Computerkonfiguration -> Administrative Vorlagen -> System -> Skripts.

Make sure that "Startscripts asynchron ausführen" is set to "Aktiviert".

On an English version of windows:
Computer configuration -> Administrative templates -> Run startup scripts asynchronously

Set it to: "Enabled"

This make sure that the user can log in, even though the software is still being installed. It's a good choice, because some unpatient users will just press Reboot button when they can't log in immediately, which can have unexpected results (software not installed properly etc.).

Next thing to set is setting "Maximale Wartezeit für Gruppenrichtlinienskripts". Default is 600 seconds (10 minutes), which can be often not enough for installing some software, or when you install more than one software package. So a safe bet is 1800 seconds (30 minutes).
