As Linux Lite is based on Ubuntu, but modified, can it be implemented as in Other Ubuntu OS's? Xubuntu for example does it. If you look at the update process right now it is a multiple step action. In Xubuntu (for example) to update the OS you need only start it. The background update service checks for, and installs, all security updates. A useful feature for new users of Linux, as well as those coming from other OS's. It has been mention in the forum by new users. But - as Linux Lite is a modified Ubuntu OS maybe it isn't possible. I do not know, but I hope it could be talked about, or looked into. I hope these feature requests are considered as constructive & in keeping with the vision of Linux Lite.
In short, no. When I first proposed this, this was an outcry with people saying they didn't want that by default. I have though, thought of adding that as an option in Lite Tweaks.
