With the help of several collaborators, I could put together a process that automates -in unattended mode- the updating of a group of solutions.
I leave the script to serve for others.
If there is anything to improve, let me know to include it.
Have a nice day and happy holidays.
P.D. :
1.- ONLY run for 32bits
2.- Must to be run as admisnistrator
3.- ONLY run for localhost
