Windows update problem caused by web troubleshooting tools and system proxy. Netsh winhttp settings were creating a local proxy that was not causing any issues in the user context, but in the system context, it was breaking outbound web connections. SCCM logs only showed the error code, but not much useful information beyond that. WindowsUpdate.log contained a clear message on the attempted use (and failure) of a proxy.

netsh winhttp>show proxy
Current WinHTTP proxy settings:
Proxy Server(s) : 127.0.0.1:8888
Bypass List : (none)
Facing same issue :(
ReplyDeletewhat if you need the proxy for some other purposes, but also want SCCM to patch the machine?
ReplyDeleteIf its proxy just for user purposes, typically that would be set inside the browser or other application, and it wouldn't be the same as what is set for winhttp. If you need it as a system wide proxy, then perhaps setting up a bypass entry for sccm related components would work. Just guessing here. I'm not an SCCM guy and rarely end up troubleshooting clients on my application servers.
Deletei have same issue netsh showproxy resetproxy not works please provide a any other solution?
ReplyDeleteI am having the same issue, my netsh Netsh winhttp show proxy is showing Direct access (no proxy server).
ReplyDeletefollowing worked for me:
ReplyDeletenetsh winhttp reset proxy
Any other solution, everything was working for me until two months ago, I started to get this error "OnSearchComplete - Failed to end search job. Error = 0x80240438.
