The following updater rules were added to ACC to help with Windows Update issues, and grant updater rights and permissions to
svchost.exe:
sadmin updaters add -t WinUp_Start15 -l system32\wups.dll svchost.exe
sadmin updaters add -t WinUp_Start16 -l system32\wups2.dll svchost.exe
ACC uses the
thread as updater feature with Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016 systems. This feature grants Windows Update
svchost.exe threads updater rights and permissions based off a list of known Window Update
dlls. When the
svchost.exe loads the Windows Update
dlls, the thread is made an updater, which eliminates the need for the previously mentioned updater rules.
