Only obsolete products showing after installing WSUS role on Windows 2012 R2

Just added WSUS role to new Windows 2012 R2 server. Unfortunately I am only seeing very obsolete products. There is no option for Office 2013, Office 2016, Windows 7, etc.

I am referring to the products listed in WSUS under options -> products and classifications.

Perform another sync with the server. On very rare occasions, it needs multiple syncs to grab the data.

If it was synced correctly while you were doing configure, should be shown under product and classifications.

As Adam has said, Please sync again and again, Restart the Server and check again.

Don't forget to update your WSUS server also with latest patches..

As mentioned above, The WSUS first needs to successfully complete its initial sync with Microsoft Update to get the metadata catalog, which can take a while.
