You are under Patching menu in SVM2018 and you attempt to connect to your WSUS/SCCM instance using the connection dialog in SVM. The SVM display connection error 0x8007007e and error message "Unable to load DLL "SusNativeCommon.dll" :: The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)"
While connecting the SVM patching module to WSUS or SCCM server instance, SVM displays the following error message:
The machine which has the SVM Patching Plugin installed should contain the file "SusNativeCommon.dll" under C:\Windows\SysWow64\ directory.
For some reason, the host where the SVM web interface and the Patching plugin for IE is installed does not have this file present . This problem has been seen on specific Windows 10 builds. This file is required for any publishing to occur to WSUS API and it represents a local system problem, and a missing SVM requirement (and missing WSUS publishing requirement) on the host.
Delete the "SusNativeCommon.dll" under C:\Windows\SysWow64 to replicate the problem.
Move the SVM installation to another machine which was predetermined to have the file present under %Windows% directories.
Alternatively, you can try copy/pasting the file from another machine which has it, but you should make sure to copy 32-bit file in the 32-bit %Windows% directory and the 64-bit into x64 %Windows% path.
