Confused about "windows update" plugin

Hello everyone,

According to “https://checkmk.com/integrations/windows_updates” there should be an “windows_updates.ps1 provided in agents/windows/plugins".

I can only find a “windows_updates.vbs”. In the checkmk web admin and in a machine with installed agent (C:\Program Files (x86)\checkmk\service\plugins).

Is this a simple error in documentation or am I missing something? I am not an expert on windows, but I do think .vbs are quite old and be deprecated soon?

I am running checkmk raw if this makes any difference.

It seems the integrations pages accidentally retrieve plugin information from the master branch:

I will clarify internally.
