A set of scripts for cleaning, maintaining, configuring and optimizing Windows Server Update Services (WSUS).

• PowerShell 5 or 6 (Microsoft has not yet ported the WSUS module to PowerShell 7)
• IIS Administration PowerShell module, when Windows Server 2012 R2
• Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) and/or RSAT for WSUS
• Microsoft SQL Server Official PowerShell module

• Optimize-WsusService.ps1: Performs a comprehensive set of WSUS optimization tasks

  # Offers the user to perform each of the recommended tasks
  .\Optimize-WsusService.ps1 -FirstRun

  # Disable and remove drivers 
  # Note: this will do a lot more things, see the "Remove-DriversFromWsus.ps1" script
  .\Optimize-WsusService.ps1 -DisableDrivers
  .\Optimize-WsusService.ps1 -DeepClean

  For more details, check out the original repository or the comments within the script itself. Keep in mind that the Optimize-WsusService.ps1 script is a modified version of Optimize-WsusServer.ps1 and has also been renamed.

• Remove-DriversFromWsus.ps1: Removes drivers from WSUS

  # Manually supplied parameters
  
  .\Remove-DriversFromWsus.ps1 [-WsusServer <server-name-or-IP>] [-PortNumber <8530|8531>] [-UseSSL <$false|$true>]

  # Case without parameters, defaults to http://localhost:8530 without SSL/TLS
  
  .\Remove-DriversFromWsus.ps1

• Set-WsusClientPointing.ps1: Enable or disable a client's pointing to WSUS

  .\Set-WsusClientPointing.ps1 -WsusEnabled <$false|$true> [-ComputerName <client-computer-name>] [-Credential <PSCredential>]
