Seurity Center finds Windows Updates not needed or applicable


Recommended Posts

Posted

We have many computers that show under available updates in KSC updates which are not applicable.
E.g.
"2022-10 Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB4023057)"
It's a bit strange, as this computer is Windows 10 22H2 and doesn't find any updates.
When you check the update catalog there is no update for 22H2
https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB4023057

When you check the KB article
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/kb4023057-update-for-windows-update-service-components-fccad0ca-dc10-2e46-9ed1-7e392450fb3a
There you can read

Note: All builds of Windows 10, versions 1507, 1511, 1607, 1703, 1709, 1803, 1809, 1903, 1909, 2004, 20H2, 21H1, 21H2, and Windows 11, version 21H2, 22H2 require this update.

No Windows 10 22H2. And we have many more such updates.

Also driver updates are often shown multiple times

The first 2 are for the same computer and the next 3 are also for another computer.

I have already deleted the computer from KSC and added again but it keeps coming back.

What can I do to cleanup the list of available updates?

Thanks

Good day

if you look at the article on the link that was given above ... by scrolling almost to the end, you will find the block "File information"

Information about updates and vulnerabilities is collected by a task in KSC (it is created by default) - Find vulnerabilities and required updates

and also collects the network agent of administration, is configured in the policy

if you do not want to receive this information, and do not plan to close these vulnerabilities and install new patches for Microsoft software or software products from other manufacturers, which in principle can be done as an automatic KSC task, if you have an Advanced license or higher ...

disable (switch to manual mode) or remove the spacing, and change the policy settings of the network administration agent.

We have all this settings set and have the tasks running.

If you look at the link, you can see that it shows only the file version Windows 10 22H2 has and not that it is an update which is available for Windows 10 22H2. So KSC is wrong.

Check on which devices the system considers it necessary to install this update and check the devices themselves ...

I checked on my devices ... the client version corresponds to the update and it is waiting for installation ... asked me to click download and install ...

I can't reproduce your problem unfortunately

 

as for the drivers...

go to the update settings on the device that requires them, and select "optional updates" they will be displayed there ... and you have to manually select them to install ...

unless of course you have this item

These drivers were available to install and I installed them.
Still KSC shows me I need to install them one week later.

For the Windows updates, Windows doesn't show any more updates to install, even not optional ones and still KSC tells me that updates are missing.

restart the task Find vulnerabilities and required updates, and follow it up.
