Windows Update Debugging

Troubleshooting SCCM Configuration Manager and Windows Update may require you to view the C:\windows\WindowsUpdate.log.

Often there isnt enough detail for example if searching for software evaluation. You may need to enable verbose logging by adding the following reg keys.

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate

Create the key Trace

Create the following 32-bit dword:

Flags with value = 7

Level with value = 4

It is best to revert these changes once you have triggered a windows update scan or Software Update Scan in SCCM and you have captured the logs that you require.
