WSUS Error after installing KB3159706

Hi together

Microsoft shows us again, that their QS isn’t the best.
After I’ve installed the newest Windows updates on my WSUS server, I had no more access to it.

What now?

I found the correct input in a Microsoft Forum after some researches, which was usefull in my case:

  • start an elevated CMD
  • run the command wsusutil.exe postinstall /servicing in the folder %ProgramFiles%\Update Services\Tools
  • add the subfeature HTTP Activation from .NET Framework 4.5 Feature within the Server Manager
  • restart the WSUS service

After this steps, my WSUS was alive.

Good luck!
