Q: About WSUS Updates

[iONic]

A couple of question regarding the program.

1) In the WSUS main window it states that the "Repository info Last downloaded: 04/29/2017. Does this mean that no Windows updates will be downloaded that were added by Microsoft after that date. Ex: today is 05/02/2017.

2) When running WSUS Updater. if the updates already exist, does WSUS still download them and overwrite the existing files, or does it only download new updates not existing on my system in the WSUS folder? It would seem VERY inefficient if all updates were continually re-downloaded.


Also: seems I am also having trouble with "unsigned files" as others are having:

Tue 05/02/2017 13:35:06.38 - Warning: Deleted unsigned file "G:\wsus Win10x64\client\w100-x64\glb\windows10.0-kb3172729-v2-x64_ccc19baa66b28b18518e015e10674bd992e258b8.cab"

1) It's the date of the last download run. For any updates released after that date, you need to re-run the download process in order to update the repository.

2) The latter. Downloads new updates, verifies existing ones, and deletes superseded ones.


Looks like the downloaded files are corrupted. Either your connection isn't stable, or there's some software interfering (probably AV).

Digital signatures of these W10 updates are expired, something M$ has to fix.
