SOLVED Manually delete wsus content

Hello! I have this error trying to cleanup WSUS server (Server Cleanup Wizard):
"The WSUS administration console was unable to connect to the WSUS Server Database.
Verify that SQL server is running on the WSUS Server. If the problem persists, try restarting SQL.
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException -- Execution Timeout Expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.

Anyone can give some help?

What version of CM are you running? There is a WSUS option to help make wsus work correctly.

Software updates maintenance - Configuration Manager

To maintain updates in Configuration Manager, you can schedule the WSUS cleanup task, or you can run it manually.

In addition to @Garth reply, If the problems persists, try to remove and reinstall in order your Software Update Point and WSUS, for your reference:
