This may fix synchronization issues with WSUS that have existed since September 4, 2018 (Office Patchday).<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Background information on the WSUS sync issue<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ssl-vg03.met.vgwort.de\/na\/6686aca4299a493d9e28d91099050e5c\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/>Administrators who distributes updates for Windows clients and Office in corporate environments via a WSUS may have noticed synchronization issues since September 4, 2018 (Office Patchday). This affected several versions of WSUS on Windows Server 2008 R2 through Windows Server 2016. I've addressed this issue within my blog post <a href=\"https:\/\/borncity.com\/win\/2018\/09\/06\/office-2016-september-3-2018-updates-breaks-wsus-sync\/\">Office 2016 September 3, 2018 updates breaks WSUS sync<\/a>. However, not all WSUS servers were affected, as I deduce from feedback on my blog post and other sources. A workaround was to exclude Office 2016 updates from the synchronization.<\/p>\n<h2>Microsoft re-releases Office 2016 updates<\/h2>\n<p>I received this morning a mail from German blog reader Markus K. (thanks for that) informing me that Microsoft has (re-)released the Office 2016 updates from September 4, 2018 on September 8th.
