WU_E_DM_UNAUTHORIZED_NO_USER
WU_E_DM_UNAUTHORIZED_NO_USER means the content request required a user context that was not available. It is often relevant to a managed, interactive, or user-scoped update route rather than to basic network reachability.
What to check
- Determine whether the update was started by an interactive user, a service, or device management.
- Check whether the content service or proxy requires user-based authentication that the Windows Update service cannot provide.
- Use a supported service-account or device-authentication design for unattended update delivery.
