  1. Cannot perform Windows 10 updates from settings


    I cannot do windows 10 updates from settings, nor am I getting auto updates. I also cannot download any apps when logged into the Microsoft Store. When I run the win update and windows store app troubleshooters, I get error messages. This seems to do with "BITS Services" not working. My computer is registered and visible on the Microsoft web site. I have tried all steps on the detailed Microsoft "troubleshoot problems updating windows" page, including file repair at the command prompt level per the help page instructions. Please help.

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Microsoft to make Windows 10 updates mandatory

    Well, at the moment at least, you can choose to defer upgrades. Under Settings > Windows Updates > Advanced options you need to check the box labeled "Defer upgrades". What does that do? Good question. The answer I've found might illuminate it to a degree.

    I hear this only applies to Pro and Enterprise editions. But I can't verify that.
