Windows 7 update error 203

Hi,
I just did a clean reinstall of win 7 on my Asus n55 with the restore partition.
I tried to do all updates using wsou. Downloads works fine but updates gave me an error 203 Wow64DisableWow64FsRedirection.
I tried putting my wsou folder on root (C:/), and launchong it with admin rights and via command prompt, but it didn't solve the problem.
Would anybody know a workaround?

Thanks
Arno

You're not the first to receive this error.

@WSUSUpdateAdmin: Maybe it's time to change the redirection thing again? A suggestion was made by Bernd here back in September 2018, but also note the change suggested by myself.

Regards
Dalai

I tried you're solution already but I'm afraid it doesn't do anything better...

The suggestions made by Bernd and me are not meant for users but for the developers of WSUS Offline. You can use the suggestions, but you need to recompile UpdateInstaller.au3 to a new EXE with AutoIt's Aut2Exe*. My guess is that that's not what you want to do, so you'll have to wait for an update to WSUS Offline.

If you don't want to wait, you can run Update.cmd directly (as administrator!) instead of UpdateInstaller, e.g. like so:
Code: Select all
wsusoffline\client\Update.cmd /seconly /updatecpp
or whatever switches you see fit. You can find all switches in wsusoffline\client\UpdateInstaller.au3 and wsusoffline\client\cmd\DoUpdate.cmd.

*) Alternatively you could run UpdateInstaller.au3 directly with AutoIt, like this:
Code: Select all
d:\path\to\AutoIt3.exe e:\path\to\UpdateInstaller.au3
