Point Windows 7 Regedit to WSUS Server
Trying to figure out the registry keys to modify, in order to point Windows 7 client computers to a WSUS server on our LAN. Several online articles specify the two following registry keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWAR E\Policies \Microsoft \Windows\W indowsUpda te
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWAR E\Policies \Microsoft \Windows\W indowsUpda te\AU
However, I can't find "WindowsUpdate" in the above path, in regedit. How do I point my Windows 7 computers to our WSUS server?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWAR
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWAR

Someone else was assigned the work. Had too much on my plate. Thanks!
Set WSUS server in the following registry folder:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Softwar
Here's a table of the keys and their meaning:
