    Hello,

    On my Windows Server 2012 box, I cannot find the correct Visual Studio reference for the following dll -- even though I have successfully enabled the WSUS role:

    microsoft.updateservices.baseapi.dll

    Thanks.

    Rich

    Is the following folder present in the windows root?

    C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.UpdateServices.BaseApi

    GAC_MSIL is present, but Microsoft.UpdateServices.BaseApi is not present.

    There should be multiple instances of this file in almost every subfolder of %ProgramFiles%\Update Services.

    On a Console-ONLY installation, there should be a copy in the ~\setup folder and in the ~\setup\bin folder.
