Windows server 2016 wsus
Hi,
our DC windows server 2016 have always updated by connecting to our wsus. In the last few days the DCs have not been able to register with the WSUS. Making an analysis we noticed that the servers try to download updates not from the wsus but from the microsoft site. In the server policies we have always configured the connection to the wsus and also in the registry keys the pointing is towards the wsus.
The error during the update is : "There were some problems installing updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help: (0x80244017)"
Reporting Events is:
Do you have any suggestions to solve the problem? We have tried them all.
Thank you

If yes, open start and search for feedback and open the Feedback Hub app and file a bug report and in the list select Windows Server and attach log files.
Try connect to the Windows Update directly and try download and install the latest update and restart your PC and see if the problem persist?
