Whenever you have a Zero Day patch and you don’t have the patches in WSUS? What are the options you have as an SCCM admin to patch your Windows 10 devices? How to Fix the issue of latest Zero Day patch missing from SCCM. How to import them into WSUS console manually?
Introduction
In General, most of the time Microsoft will release the update with WSUS metadata catalog information. Sometime, MS will release individual updates which are not part of the WSUS catalog. In this scenario, we need to import the updates into the WSUS console using Windows Catalog Agent.
NOTE! – Microsoft will be publishing these patches to WSUS soon. Probably by end of the day today!
Prerequisites
- WSUS Server to have internet access to import the metadata from Microsoft to WSUS Console
- The Internet Explorer need add-on ‘Microsoft Update Catalog’ to find the updates from MS site or it will be prompted when trying to open the Microsoft update catalog web site URL – http://catalog.update.microsoft.com

Thank you Kannan. When we try to install .msu file with the help of WUSA.exe, the command is not executing via SCCM. But manually it works. Any idea of the issue?
Awesome thanks.
WSUSSYnc.log should be wsyncmgr.log (screenshoot is correct)
Thanks for sharing!!
