I'm trying to automate WSUS with powershell, however to do this I need to know what version is installed. How do I find this information?

The server is using Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard. Thanks.

You can use the following code to get the version of WSUS in PowerShell:

[void][reflection.assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.UpdateServices.Administration")
$wsus = [Microsoft.UpdateServices.Administration.AdminProxy]::getUpdateServer(“dc1”,$False)
$wsus.Version

  • I can seem to get this to work on Server 2016.

WSUS was initially a separate software which you had to download and install, but since Windows Server 2008 R2 it has been included in the OS.

Windows Server 2012 R2 runs WSUS 4.0.

Or you can use PowerShell:

get-itemproperty -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Update Services\Server\Setup\' -Name IISPreviousInstallRevision
