    Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    The best option to bring your Windows version fully up to date and also fix the problems with your update service is to use the Windows 11 ISO to perform an in-place repair

    Please follow the steps, this is then just an update and your personal files, settings and installed software will not be affected.

    Click this link:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    to download the Windows 11 ISO

    When the ISO file completes downloading

    Disconnect from the Internet

    Disconnect all external devices with the exception of a mouse or keyboard.

    Temporarily disable any 3rd party Anti-virus you may have installed

    Then, in Windows File Explorer, double click the ISO and then run Setup.exe and select the upgrade option.

    This process is not re-installing Windows, it is just another method to perform an update, this will not affect your personal files, settings and installed software.
