Is there a way to change the Windows Update Config through batchpatch?

For what you are describing you actually do not need to change the config on the target computers. Instead, I would recommend that you leave the config on the target computers as-is. Then in BatchPatch go to ‘Tools > Settings > Windows Update’ and change the ‘Server Selection’ value to ‘Windows Update.’ Then when you initiate a download/install action in BatchPatch, BP will instruct the target computers to check for updates on Windows Update instead of your local WSUS.

I hope this helps.

Excellent Doug! Thanks very much for pointing this out for me. This makes using our WSUS or Windows Update so much easier through Batchpatch. What a great product!

Thank you.

No problem! Glad to hear that BP is working so well for you!

Thanks,

Doug
