Answer 3

Hi,

How about if you delete below registry key? (PS: Before you modify your registry, please first create a backup)

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\WUServer

And have you also tried below?

Set the startup type of "Connected User Experiences and Telemetry" under "Services" to "Automatic".

Thanks,

Hi @Chicagotech.net

The issue you are facing relates that WU in the the current server is managed by WSUS. If there is no WSUS in the environment it means that there are managed settings under the Windows Update key as @Eleven Yu (Shanghai Wicresoft Co,.Ltd.) has advised above.

Also an RMM agent can push settings causing this behaviour for your Windows Updates, in that case you will have to adjust your RMM solution.
