Patch reliability is unclear, but widespread attacks make patching prudent. Go ahead and patch, but watch out for potential problems. |

Well, at least it brings the WaaSAssessment registry values into correspondence with the W10 build that is actually installed.
“Note it doesn’t go into detail what the ‘missing solution’ is.”
No, it doesn’t, but a glance at all the files installed under \Windows\System32 and elsewhere with modified dates that are later than the original KB4458469 release suggest that it must have involved numerous and major changes.

So – are any of these “Sept 20 missing solution” patches available via WSUS?
I – like many others here – had a boatload of WSUS sync failures etc over the last few days – but even now after the sync seems to now be working fine – I still do not see these “C” and “D” week patches.
Could I be missing a Product classification or something? Outside of the usual suspects – I do not have Feature packs or Service Packs checked. Do these classifications offer up these “C” and “D” week patches?
Appreciate any info on this.
Sonic.
P.S. it’s in the “Updates” classification. So if you don’t sync that category you won’t see it.
I have “Updates” checked and have had it checked for months. There is no sign of these patches – my WSUS sync schedule is set to every 2 hours.
Mind you – this has been going on for a long long time now. I never see any Windows 10 updates that release in the last half of any given month. The only patches I get without fail are the main cumulative patches offered on Patch Tuesday.
The only patch that I see that is remotely connected to this is KB4464218 – which came down on Sept 17.
There is no sign of anything that was issued on Sept 26 like KB4458469 for v1803 or KB4457136 for v1709.
I just reviewed the Synchronizations Panel in WSUS – and the last time I got any patches were 2 on Sept 17.
And for fun – I start a manual sync 10 minutes ago – it never completed the sync. Then I clicked Stop – and it would not stop after 5 minutes of trying. Just rebooted the server.
I must be missing something else here.
