Also, if you're not using WSUS to patch drivers (and my feeling is you shouldn't because WSUS is terrible at it) look at the directions at <a href="http://www.runonazure.com/how-to-delete-driver-updates-from-wsus-3-0/" rel="ugc">http://www.runonazure.com/how-to-delete-driver-updates-from-wsus-3-0/</a>&nbsp;for purging those drivers.<br />
<br />
First time I ran it it blew away 1.3 million lines from the DB and I've never had a slow day with WSUS since.

Hello-<br />
Recently installed WSUS 3.0 sp2 on new install of 2008 r2. &nbsp;The issue I'm having is that sometimes the MMC console has an error &quot;reset server node&quot; when attempting to display updates. &nbsp;This is accompanied by event ID 7053. &nbsp;I have installed KB2720211; .Net 4.6.2 and we are using WID for the database. &nbsp;Is there a value that can be increased, timeout or otherwise.<br />

Hello-
Recently installed WSUS 3.0 sp2 on new install of 2008 r2.  The issue I'm having is that sometimes the MMC console has an error "reset server node" when attempting to display updates.  This is accompanied by event ID 7053.  I have installed KB2720211; .Net 4.6.2 and we are using WID for the database.  Is there a value that can be increased, timeout or otherwise.
Thank you
