WU_E_NO_SUCH_HANDLER_PLUGIN

WU_E_NO_SUCH_HANDLER_PLUGIN means the current Windows Update Agent does not provide the download, installation, or applicability-evaluation plugin named by the update. This is a local component mismatch, not a proxy error.

What to verify

Review the Windows Update log for the handler or evaluator name that could not be loaded.
For managed content, verify that the update metadata is intended for this client platform and is not being offered to an unsupported image.
