Dear, all.

In WSUS, if use AUOption=auto download and notify of install.
I choose not to install some updates, and choose not notify me these updates
any more. From that time I could not see these update any more.

Any way to recover these updates, in order I could choose to install them?

Thanks.

Frank

Hi,

Open the Control Panel, and start the "Automatic Updates" applet.

At the bottom of the dialog box, you will find the option "Offer
updates again that I've previously hidden".



Or you can use a VBScript (.vbs file) to do it:

'--------------------8<----------------------

On Error Resume Next
Dim oSearcher, oSearchResult, i, oUpdate

Set oSearcher = CreateObject("Microsoft.Update.Searcher")

' use locally cached information
oSearcher.Online = False

' find updates that are hidden
Set oSearchResult = oSearcher.Search("IsHidden=1")

If Err.Number = 0 Then
If oSearchResult.Updates.Count > 0 Then
For i = 0 to oSearchResult.Updates.Count - 1
Set oUpdate = oSearchResult.Updates(i)
' unhide the update
oUpdate.IsHidden = False
Next
End If
End If

'--------------------8<----------------------
