There is one patch e.g Windows 11 (consumer editions), version 22H2 en-us x64

This patch is in unapproved so we need to approve only this patch to single machine

if i go unapproved tab wsus console shows reset to node and system gets hanged

how to approve that particular unapproved patch to single machine using PowerShell script.

    Are you performing the proper WSUS maintenance including but not limited to running the Server Cleanup Wizard (SCW), declining superseded updates, running the SQL Indexing script, etc.?

    I know it's a bit odd asking something that may seem off topic, but approving an update should NOT CAUSE a reset node to happen. This is usually due to lack of maintenance and/or lack of optimization.
