what about the computer still remain in the same OU and assigned to the same WSUS gpo, it will get check-in and appear back in wsus console ?

Qlemo

As long as a GPO is applied setting WSUS, the computer will reappear.

Noah

Yes. As @Qlemo mentioned, the computer will reappear but I have seen anyone apply that kind of GPO. Even if they had it, they should disable it for about 3 hours first to let the changes take full effect. Additional complications arise when the Options->Computers setting is inconsistent with the configuration of the GPO "Enable client-side targeting". If the GPO is enabled and target groups are assigned via GPO, but Options->Computers was never set to "Use Group Policy..", then the ability to change group memberships in the console is active, but because the client is authoritative for group memberships, anything done at the console to change group memberships will be ultimately ignored when the client checks in the next time. If the Target Group assigned to the client does not exist, then the client will be placed in "Unassigned Computers".
