Installing PMP after removing another TPP product. How do you remove the product categories from WSUS such as "Adobe, Sun Systems, etc", I should only have "Microsoft, Patch My PC" product categories.
You can use the modify publishes updates wizard in our advanced tab to delete all other updates for other products/vendors then run the WSUS Cleanup Wizard.
I ran this, and I was able to decline the updates, but I didn't see an option to delete the product categories themselves. When I go into the SUP configuration in the SCCM console, I still see the old products names from the other TPP solution.
To enable the Delete button, create a new DWORD registry value: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Patch My PC Publishing Service:EnableDeleteUpdates = 1. This will enable the delete option.
If you delete the updates, will this remove the "Vendor" category from WSUS itself?
If all updates are deleted for a vendor then you run the WSUS Cleanup Wizard, it should remove them.
Worked brilliant! Thank you. I'm excited to be working with Patch My PC. I will be promoting this on all my engagements.
Perfect! Let us know if you need anything else.
