HOW-TO: Import Out of Band Updates to WSUS using Microsoft Edge Chromium IE Mode and PowerShell
----- I recommend using https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/Import-WSUSUpdate Full instructions to install the module are located here - https://www.ajtek.ca/blog/the-new-way-t...
kwester-ebbinghaus-business I've not had need to import anything for a while.
What update are you trying to import, and I'll use that as a test, as well as picking some other random update to try and import.

Hi James, this customer failed to import .net 4.8 for Windows Server. In addition, out of band update needs to be imported if a customer requires to fix a certain issue the OOB is going to fix.
Albeit obsolete you might want to try KB5016138 or these:

We have tried to import the .net 4.8 for Windows Server 2016.

We have tried to import the .net 4.8 for Windows Server 2016.
- Just as a test, I picked a Windows 7 update (KB4533005), which imported ok.
Also tried KB5016138 and KB4486153, and they also imported ok.
Perhaps you guys have Windows or Edge updates installed that I do not yet, which have introduced the issue?- Good thought Eds1989. Could you be asked to check whether on your system the activeX for WU import is already installed, and try on a system where you never imported WSUS (e.g. Windows Server 2019 / 2022 with RSAT Windows Update Console and Edge).
Potentially the issue exists on machines which never imported any WU updates to WSUS.- So on my laptop from which I was testing, the ActiveX control was already installed.
I have just gone onto our management server, running Windows Server 2022, which has RSAT installed but has not previously had the WSUS ActiveX installed.
When clicking import updates, it takes me to the site and prompts me to install the control. I did so, and imported an update successfully.
I did get a couple of UAC prompts along the way, but otherwise no issue.
I checked, and this machine has the same Edge version 104.
