This is so true it hurts lol. We are a public high school with computer labs and sometimes need to wait for a user to log in before updates start applying. We regularly use a script to kick off the updates.

    Unfortunately, devices will not update unless a user has logged into them at some point - if the device has never been logged into then it will not update. Note, the user does not need to be logged in for the update to take effect. In fact, most updates should happen overnight when the end user is not present if you have policies configured correctly.
