    Hi Carlos,

    Please try the following steps to remove WSUS 3.0:

    1. Download the SDK to obtain MSIZAP

       http://download.microsoft.com/download/e/9/d/e9d80355-7ab4-45b8-80e8-983a48d5e1bd/msicuu2.exe

    2. From a command prompt, type:
    MSIZAP T {2C0D7E35-EE6E-4DC7-BA13-2C68AEDEB59D}

    3. From a command prompt, type: sc delete wsusservice

    4. Again, From a command prompt, type:

        MSIZAP T {2C0D7E35-EE6E-4DC7-BA13-2C68AEDEB59D}

    5. From a command prompt, type: iisreset

    The MSIZAP switch "T" removes all info for given product code

    P.S.
    For WSUS 3.0: MSIZAP T {2C0D7E35-EE6E-4DC7-BA13-2C68AEDEB59D}


    For Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Embedded Edition

    1) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server
         Edit the "InstalledInstances" value and remove "MICROSOFT##SSEE"

    2) Remove the "MICROSOFT##SSEE" subkey under
         HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server

    3) Remove the "MSSQL.2005" subkey under
         HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server

    4) Rename the following folder:
          \%Windir%\SYSMSI\SSEE\MSSQL.2005\MSSQL\Data  to   \%Windir%\SYSMSI\SSEE\MSSQL.2005\MSSQL\Data.old

      (If \MSSQL\Data lock , you can removing the "Windows Internal Database" from Add/remove programs)

    --------------------

    Eric,

     

    I am having the same problems. When I try to uninstall 3.0 I get the "unable to find registry key" error.

     

    I am running Windows Server 2003, would the above instruction work for me also?

    Hello,

     

    This fixed a portion of my issue.  After following the above steps I was able to upgrade to WSUS 3.0SP1, however, I am not able to get a syncronization after the new installation.


    I am having the same issue on 2 servers that I manage for 2 different companies that update from Microsoft.

     

    Any tips on where to look for a cause or is this a known issue?

     

    Thanks in advance

    Travis
