Is a running Windows Update Service" wuauserv required to update VMWareTools in Win guestOS?

I set the built-in Windows Update to "Never check for updates".

I guess the Windows Update Service is stopped due to this settings.

If I want to update now VMWareTools it refused due to not avaliable Windows Update Service.

If a running wsuaserv is required:

Can I simply start iot with

net start wuauserv

?
