For all those having 'download failed' issues, don't give full permission to 'Everyone' on the share (because this would allow anyone to mess with definition updates on the share, a potential security risk), rather do the following: Open up the C:\sources share permissions and add: SMSSERVER\Administrators with full permission SMSSERVER\WSUS Administrators with full permission Alternatively put your package in the auto generated 'c:\sources\WSUS\UpdateServicesPackages' instead of 'c:\sources\WSUS\updates\Endpoint' share, which has the proper permissions automatically generated for it from when you first setup the WSUS update point.
