WU_E_PT_NO_AUTH_COOKIES_CREATED

WU_E_PT_NO_AUTH_COOKIES_CREATED means the agent received authentication information but could not turn it into a valid authentication cookie for the protocol session.

What to check

Review the IIS, WSUS, and proxy authentication response for the failing request.
Check whether a proxy or load balancer changes, strips, or blocks session cookies and authentication headers.
Verify that the client is using the intended WinHTTP proxy configuration rather than browser-only proxy settings.

netsh winhttp show proxy
