wsus and batchpatch dont add up

[jared1427]

hi. thanks for the time. just wondering what is the correlation between wsus patches and what batchpatch finds? in wsus i have approved for 16 patches but batchpatch only finds 10. and i have ‘default/managed’ checked… along with important and recommended. and critical and security. i only approve security and critical on wsus side.

is there a time delay between when an update is approved in wsus to when batchpatch picks it up?

thanks again for the time and efforts.

If you are searching your WSUS, then select “All software” and “All drivers” instead of “Important” and “Recommended.” When you select “Important” and “Recommended” BatchPatch will filter what it sees on your WSUS and show you only a subset of those updates. But for WSUS server usage, just select “All software” and “All drivers” so that BatchPatch displays everything that the WSUS has approved for installation.
