-7. Once the import is complete, click **Close** on the browser window.
-     - Reset your default browser if needed.
-8. Synchronize your Configuration Manager Software Update Point.
+The **Import Updates** action in WSUS was built using ActiveX, which is now deprecated. This import functionality within WSUS has been replaced with a PowerShell script. The script allows you to import a single update, or multiple updates, from the catalog site into WSUS.
+
+1. Use the instructions and PowerShell script from the [WSUS and the Microsoft Update Catalog site](/windows-server/administration/windows-server-update-services/manage/wsus-and-the-catalog-site) article to import updates into WSUS for your top-level software update point. There isn't a need to import into WSUS for child sites. The top-level software update point will synchronize the updates to the child sites.
+1. Once the import is completed, in the Configuration Manager console, go to the **Software Library** workspace, expand **Software Updates**, and select the **All Software Updates** node.
+1. Select **Synchronize Software Updates** to synchronize the newly imported updates into Configuration Manager.
