Windows 10: Computer will not connect to microsoft.com in order to connect email and apply updates

I haven't been able to connect my to my email from the mail app in windows 10. It will constantly give me the error code 0x800704CF and say I am not connected to the internet. Recently I also tried updating my laptop, and it says 'your device is missing important security and quality fixes.' but will not show any available updates is there a way to fix this issue?

Connecting computer with no internet connection to network printer


@dk1971

1. Open Admin command and type: ipconfig
   
   
   
2. Win+X->Control Panel->Netwok and Sharing Center
   Follow the screen shot. This should disable internet access from this PC but allows access to local device(s)
   NOTE: Use the IP & Subnet Mask from step 1. Leave Default gateway & DNS Server blank
