If I approve x86 updates for a x64 system, or vice versa, would that cause problems? &nbsp;Would the x86 systems just ignore the 64 bit updates?

Ah, that's good to know. &nbsp;I was just unsure if approving 64 bit updates for a 32 bit system could cause problems, thanks. &nbsp;That will actually make things a bit easier.

Yeah, as long as you understand that WSUS is a PULL technology. WSUS does not push updates, clients request only updates that have been approved and that apply.
