Thank you for your reply. Windows update wont work on my computer, dont know why. Ive tried the diagnostic tool to no avail. I tried the download you suggested but it doesnt install properly.
Has Windows update worked previously? Are you running the fall update (you can update via the media creation tool)?
Have you run any windows update troubleshooter?
In the Control Panel list of troubleshooters, in the “System and Security” section, click “Fix problems with Windows Update.”
