Run Synchronisation button missing from Update Repository

[Mur]

I am trying to update the packages i can deploy and I noticed that my button on the top right which said "Run Synchronisation" is gone.

 

It was there originally and I was able to get updates (and I still am getting updates automatically)

 

I am unable to right click and update either.

 

 

I know it should look like this.

That's weird... How do your Software Update Point (Component) settings look like?

I don't have any proxy settings in update point.

 

 

I just uninstalled WSUS and reinstalled WSUS but the same issue persists.

 

When I try to deploy a package it says "All software in this selection are expired or metadata-only. The deployment cannot be created."

I actually meant the settings under Component Configuration.

I was able to fix the first part of my issue with the sync button missing

 

Remove software update point -> re-adding software update point and making sure that there is a check in this box fixed it.

I still have an issue where it says "All software in this selection are expired or metadata-only. The deployment cannot be created."

 

Any ideas where I should look?

I also fixed this by uninstall WSUS and during the uninstall removing everything. After that you can reinstall, get all of the updates again and they work.
