Manuel Gil's Windows Update reset tools (500K+ downloads) were archived with no replacement. RWU fills the gap with a 14-step .cmd workflow that separates safe operations from destructive ones — policy deletion and SDDL reset require explicit opt-in. It includes CLI exit codes for RMM automation and diagnostic output structured for AI analysis.
