  1. Still have the same issue. Problem I see is any new 2016 server gets this error so I think it is related to the client version on the server vs WSUS

  2. Ok I feel bad now as just found the fix (used this back in XP) for all those with similar issues (2016 WSUS server, new clients throwing error: 0x8024401c) try this simple fix:
    Open an elevated CMD Prompt, Type "Netsh" and hit enter, Type "winhttp import proxy source=ie" and hit enter. You should problem is fixed. I used to use this to solve WSUS problems with proxy settings in XP but despite having no proxy on my network this seems to have cured all, hope it helps someone else.

    1. All my Windows 10 1607 and Server 2016 1607 had error 0x8024401c.
      Some IIS Application Pool tuning tips didn't help.
      Adamj's Clean-WSUS PowerShell 3 script running on WSUS Srv solved the problem:
