WSUS 3 sp1 do not distribute patches to clients

After upgrading from WSUS 2 to WSUS 3 sp1 the clients no longer receive any
updates from the WSUS server. Running a WSUS client diagnostic tool
everything gets a pass except an error message at the end of the tool message
box stating "WinHttpDownloadFileToMemory(szURLDest, Null, 0, Null, Null, Nul,
&downloadBuffer) failed with hr=0x80190194".


The WindowsUpdate log on the local workstations state:

"Agent * Online = Yes; Ignore download priority = No
Agent * Criteria = "IsHidden=0 and IsInstalled=0 and
DeploymentAction='Installation' and IsAssigned=1 or IsHidden=0 and
IsPresent=1 and DeploymentAction='Uninstallation' and IsAssigned=1 or

This is an HTTP '404' error on the ~/selfupdate virtual directory. This is a
common issue with the WSUS v3 SP1 upgrade. For some reason the installer
does not properly (re)create the ~/selfupdate virtual directory. (The WSUS
team is aware of this and is researching the issue.)

This is the remediation:
[1] Create a new virtual directory called 'selfupdate'. Set the pathname to
%programfiles%\Update Services\selfupdate.
[2] Enable Anonymous Access on the 'selfupdate' virtual directory.

Then you don't have the same problem.

Please start a new thread with YOUR problem.
