  1. Windows Update is not possible & USOClient.exe is missing


    Hello,I have an issue where Windows Update fails to retrieve the latest updates available. I am getting the following message: "Your device is missing important security and quality fixes."After some searching on here and with Bing AI, I found that USOClient.exe, which is located in system32, might not be working as intended. If I use PowerShell and the command PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> UsoClient StartScan I am getting the following errorWindows Update is not possible & USOClient.exe is missing :program 'UsoClient.exe' failed to run: The system cannot find the file specifiedAt line:1 char:1 + UsoClient StartScan + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~. At line:1 char

    :)

    Hello,

    Since wuauclt has been depreciated in windows 10, I was googling what has replaced it.

    I found that usoclient is what has replaced this command for windows update in the command line.

    However none of the commands work except one

    Code:
    USOclient ScanInstall Wait
    
    The startScan option kicks it on for about a half second but fails to actually scan
    Here are the commands I could find

    • RefreshSettings – used to quickly enact any settings changes
    • RestartDevice – as the name implies, it restarts the device. Can be used in a script to allow updates to finish installing on next boot.
    • ResumeUpdate – used to tell the tool to resume updating after a reboot.
    • StartDownload – initiates a full download (from Microsoft) of existing updates
    • StartInstall – kicks-off the installation of the downloaded updates
    • ScanInstallWait – Combined Scan Download Install
    • StartInteractiveScan – we’ve yet to get this one to work, but it suggests that the process may work in a GUI
    • StartScan – kicks-off a regular scan


    If anyone has any info on this it would be greatly appreciated.
