Hi, @Touris Jade

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

The error "Invalid certificate signature" during the "Download Software Updates Wizard" in SCCM could indicate an issue with the SSL certificate being used for the connection. This error often occurs when the certificate is not trusted or has been improperly configured.

To resolve this issue, you should check the following:

1. Ensure that the server authentication certificate is correctly installed on the software update point server.
2. Verify that the certificate's signature is valid and that it hasn't expired.
3. Confirm that the certificate's subject name matches the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the server.
4. Check the SSL configuration on both the WSUS server and the software update point to ensure they are set up correctly.

If the SSL configuration is incorrect or if the certificate is not trusted, it can lead to download failures.
