New Post: Server version is different from console version (even though it's not)

I'm running Windows 8.1 on my adminstrative machine and Server 2012 R2 for my WSUS server. Should be identical versions of the console and in fact it is when I check the versions. Both show they're on 6.3.9600.16384, but I still get the error in WPP. Thoughts?

I realize I could run it directly from the WSUS server, but I'd rather not do that if I don't have to.
