2012 WSUS not showing all servers

Question
-
Hello,
I have a few targeted server groups in on our WSUS server. However not all servers are showing for example:
Production (70%)
Development (80%)
Domain Controllers (3/4 servers)
Skype Servers (none)
If I go onto the servers that are missing from WSUS and into their GPO and check:
HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU
All the settings look ok, it will show the correct targeted from etc.
I can have 2 servers on the same GPO and only 1 will be on WSUS.
The Windowsupdate log file will list the correct WSUS server too. This is one that was there the other day and now missing:

Hi TB,
As Rolf has mentioned, the issue may due to duplicated SUSClientID, please reset SUSClientID:
Reset SusClientId:
1). In cmd, net stop wuauserv2). Delete the value in registry key " SusClientId " and "SusClientIDValidation" locates in:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate
3). In cmd, net start wuauserv

ok thanks.
I see a few Windows 10 laptops appear to show they have 'Failed counts' of up to 70 times. I use to be able to remote to Windows 7 and below computer's C:\windows\windowsupdate.txt but this is now gone.
What is the best way to remote to a Windows 10 laptop through the network to check this log file now?
Thanks

Hi TB303,
We need to use powershell command Get-WindowsUpdateLog to get windows 10 update log:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-sg/kb/3036646
To remote the other computers, we need to enable the win10 is allowed to logon remotely, then, we may use mstsc, and enter the IP address or FQDN to remote.

Anne
