- Remove hardcoded Prerequisites category UUID (0fa1201d) from sync-updates.xml — modern WU clients no longer satisfy this category, causing updates to be silently marked non-applicable - Populate <Properties> in get-config.xml with required protocol negotiation fields (ProtocolVersion, MaxExtendedUpdatesPerRequest, IsInventoryRequired, ClientReportingLevel) — absence causes 0x8024402a on current WU client versions - Catch ConnectionResetError/BrokenPipeError on EXE send in do_GET — suppresses noisy traceback from BITS range-request probe - Bump lxml to >=4.9.2 to fix build failure on Python 3.11+ Tested on: Windows 10 22H2, Windows 11 24H2, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2022
