Hi all, After installing windows update on one of my NPS server, it doesn't accept connection from users with this error: Network Policy Server denied access to a user.
I will think of some way to include a quick way to fix the problem without adding so many details. Sometimes I go overboard with details thinking that if I explain the problem in detail it will help to understand the problem better and then folks will know why the other ideas about things to "try" will not ever work.
I adjusted the topic so it might work better with no images Perhaps John's new computer needs a video driver update The thing about these Windows Policy adjustments and malware scanners is that the scanners can't tell if the policy adjustment is legitimate or not it could be so depending on the scanner they might reports it as a PUM Potentially Unwanted Modification and give you a chance to remove it I get carried away with details sometimes thinking others might find it interesting to know how things work.
It is extremely unlikely to be a malware infection never seen it. The quick fix is to just remove the suspicious Group Policy registry key causing the problem.
First make a manual System Restore point just in case. For those that are interested here are more details about problem: I don't know all the possible ways these Policies may have been set but I know how to fix it. Then launch the registry editor regedit.

I agree with CanadianTech that your insight deserves its own thread. How satisfied are you with this reply? You started a thread for it, I failed to notice. Canadian Tech. Good job! For me, reinstall is so far nowhere on the list of problem solving options. I have the problem described above. It would be helpful if the Images worked. Image 1,2,4,5 and the last image 7 are not visible. Would love to get the updates for my wife's Christmas present. Thanks for your help. PS Canadian Tech directed me to your post.
In reply to JohnChamberlain's post on December 26, Do you know your way around Registry Editor Regedit. When the user installs Microsoft Windows Update updates manually, the updates may be downloaded from Microsoft servers rather than from Administration Server.
This is possible if Administration Server has not yet downloaded these updates. Downloading updates from Microsoft servers results in extra traffic. Users can install all of the Microsoft Windows Update updates that are applicable to their devices and that are approved by you. For example, you may want to first check the installation of updates in a test environment and make sure that they do not interfere with the operation of devices, and only then allow the installation of these approved updates on client devices.
Users cannot install Microsoft Windows Update updates on their devices manually. All of the applicable updates are installed as configured by you. Select this option if you want to manage the installation of updates centrally.
For example, you may want to optimize the update schedule so that the network does not become overloaded. You can schedule after-hours updates, so that they do not interfere with user productivity.
