Allow non-administrators to receive update notifications

Administrative Template: Wuau
Policy Node: MACHINE
Policy Path: Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Update
Supported On: Windows Server 2003, XP SP1, 2000 SP3
Help/Explain Text: Specifies whether, when logged on, non-administrative users will receive update notifications based on the configuration settings for Automatic Updates. If Automatic Updates is configured, by policy or locally, to notify the user either before downloading or only before installation, these notifications will be offered to any non-administrator who logs onto the computer. If the status is set to Enabled, Automatic Updates will include non-administrators when determining which logged-on user should receive notification. If the status is set to Disabled or Not Configured, Automatic Updates will notify only logged-on administrators. Note: If the Configure Automatic Updates policy is disabled, this policy has no effect.
Registry Settings: HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate!ElevateNonAdmins
