Hello,
I would like to know the procedure for reactivating Windows Update and uninstalling the WAPT agent, please.
I tried the package you suggested for enabling WU, "enable-windows-update," as well as the scripts from the official WAPT documentation, but nothing works.
I want to be sure I'm following the correct procedure to do things properly while waiting for the full integration of my network.
I am currently on an enterprise license.
Thank you and have a good day.

Good morning
After installing the "enable-windows-update" package in wapt-get.ini, you should see:
If this is not the case, it means that a configuration package installed on the machine is forcing the reactivation of waptwua
After installing the "enable-windows-update" package in wapt-get.ini, you should see:
Code: Select all
[waptwua]
enabled=False
Hello,
Yes, it does correctly set the value to false:
[waptwua]
enabled=false.
This was already the case during my first attempt.
However, I have persistent policies that are blocking the process. They must be related to the wapt configuration because Windows Update management isn't handled on our end (no AD GPO...), the users manage it themselves.
I do have these policies applied:
AllowMUUpdateService
AllowUpdateService
SetDisableUXWUAccess
AllowAutoUpdate
UpdateServiceUrl.
I hope this is clear enough.
Thank you
