    Yes, Troubleshooter won't help, because it won't change the authorization.xml, that's the root cause.

    Here's a dumb question...

    I unchecked the box indicated in Born's blog

    WU checked but didn't find any new ones. So I went back to the WU settings screen with the intention to re-check the box I'd unchecked. BUT, it's not there any more! How do I get that option back again...??

    This what I see now:

    That's a known issue. I've added a note to my article and linked to some blog posts to fix this issue. But this isn't helpful now, because: If you re-enable both missing checkboxes, you are back at error 0x80248015.

    MS has to fix that mess  (won't go into the detail, but a file authorization.xml need to be updated). I've written a post here in MS Answers forum about that issue - hope a forum moderator forwards it to the product group.
