MMC could not create the snap-in "Michael Smith" <test[ at ]tester.be> 5/18/2007 6:58:45 PM Hi, Upgraded from wsus 2 to 3 without errors. However can not start the wsus 3 administration console. I get the following message: MMC could not create the snap-in. MMC could not create the snap-in. The snap-in might not have been installed correctly. Name : Update Services CLSID : FX:{8b6499ed-0241-e032-6508-da4b1c879d7e} I found some workarounds, but none of them worked. - I already deinstalled and re installed the product. - I also deleted the c:\windows\system32\mmc.exe.config file, which I needed for citrix ps 4.0 in the past. - I put the administrator in the wsus groups. All without success. What's next? Any error log with more detailed information? I hope any one has an idea . regards, Michael p.s. running windows server 2003 servicepack 2 (newest mmc 3.0 console included and report viewer 2005 also installed)

RE: MMC could not create the snap-in gregski 5/22/2007 5:53:00 PM I have the same problem. Upgraded from v2 to v3 on a Win2k3 SP2 Std server. The WSUS entry in the Admin Tools menu launches the web admin page. I ran MMC but could not find a stand alone entry for WSUS. MMC v3 is included in 2k3 SP2 and I have report viewer installed.
