WU_E_AU_NO_REGISTERED_SERVICE

WU_E_AU_NO_REGISTERED_SERVICE means Automatic Updates has no unmanaged update service registered for the request. This is relevant when software registers or unregisters update services programmatically.

What to check

  • For WUA-based software, enumerate the registered services and confirm that the intended service is still present.
  • Do not remove or replace a service registration while an Automatic Updates request is active.
  • For an ordinary endpoint, treat this as a configuration clue and inspect the managed update-source settings first.
