How to identify particular KB Installed or Not in a (Remote) windows machine using powershell from wsus server .

Question

Hi Team,
i searched many templates to run  PowerShell script for fetching KB's status, but not working any more.
Actually We have a WSUS server in which 200 computers are reporting(existing) . I would like to check if a particular KB is installed on all 200 computers or NOT.

Kindly guide me with the help of PowerShell script.

I found a related link just for your reference. In addition, I tested it in my lab environment and I would like to share the screenshot for your reference:

The script could help to get the specified KB number from client itself.

Also, I found a useful link for your reference. It is helpful to get the specified updates from WSUS database and save to the specified path.

Hope the above will be helpful. Please feel free to keep us in touch if you have any other questions.

Have a nice day :)

Regards,
Rita
