Have a WSUS 3 running on SBS 2008. The Auto Approval of all critical and security patches template was turned on accidently. The thought was it would only download if needed. Silly me - that makes too much sense. The download was stopped pretty much right away and all the "newly" approved patches were un-approved. The problem is WSUS Server status screen still says "Files needed to be Downloaded: 4637." Everything seems to be working though. I can approve an update and it downloads. It even increase the Files needed to be downloaded and then decreases it when it comes down.
How can I get the screen or more approprietly the DB to realise that there are no files to download. Its not stuck trying to download. Just seems like something got scrambled when we stopped the download and reversed the approvals.
Thank You.
