Trigger Windows Store Apps update by script at first login

Hi

Is it possible to trigger Windows 8.1 to check for Windows Store Apps updates at first login?

My issue is that when I add language packs to my Windows 8.1 images, the default apps (Mail, Calendar, Food and Drinks) are still in English. Not until the Windows Store apps are updated will they change to the correct language (Language of the OS). I have turned on autodownload in the registry using this registry key:

REG ADD "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsStore\WindowsUpdate" /v "AutoDownload" /t REG_DWORD /d 4 /f

It seems kind of random how long it takes before the autodownload kicks in. Some times it just a reboot and other times it takes like 24 hours. Can I trigger this update to start with some kind of script?

You need to post in the Windows 8.1 developer forum.  This is not a scripting issue but is a product specific request. REG is not a script it is a command line utility.

Do you mean on MSDN? I don't really see any Windows 8.1 developer forum
