Hi,

is there a way to set an option for removal not reported computers in specific period of time (1, 2 month)?

I found the article dated 2006.

May some newer option. Don't see any in a new WSUS.

Thx.

Hi pob579,

Seems the tool can not be downloaded any more in the link you provided.

Generally, we may run server cleanup wizard in WSUS console to delete computers not contacting the server in 30 days or more:
