Windows 10: I received another alert that my computer will no longer receive free updates,

I pay for Microsoft 365 and now I see that I will not receive update or tech support free. What can I do?

No longer receiving sms and email alerts

My LG E900 has been working well until I noticed yesterday that I am no longer receiving email and sms alerts. I have not changed any settings and the ringer function is on. Can someone please tell me what has gone wrong? I have missed a couple of important
messages through not being alerted in time.

Outlook sync fails after receiving SharePoint list alerts

When I receive an alert email generated by an event in a SharePoint 2007 list, subsequent Outlook synchronisations fail with an error message.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Outlook on the WP7, hit sync and ensure email is described as up-to-date.

2. Navigate to a SharePoint 2007 list and select the Alert Me option from the Actions menu. Set up an alert to be sent to your email account.

3. Make a change to an item in the list and await the event notification to be sent and then to sync to the phone.

4. Once arrived, hit the Synchronise option on the WP7 menu. The email sync will fail with an error message. No further emails will be received.

5. Tap the alert email in the Outlook list and delete the alert email.

6. Hit the synchronise option and observe that the synchronisation succeeds.



This behaviour observed on Samsumg Omnia 7 and HTC Mozart, running retail versions of the software. Carrier - Orange UK.

No Longer Receiving Updates ... Is Microsoft Angry With Me?

Since the middle of December (2018) my computer has stopped receiving any Windows Updates aside from Windows Defender definition updates. Even when I sign in to my Administrators account to check for updates, I still cannot receive updates.

Up to this point I have never had any trouble obtaining updates, and I have not made any changes to my computer, neither hardware nor software, nor have I made any changes to my home network setup. I checked that my WiFi adapter is supported on Windows 10.

Here's what I've tried so far to continue receiving updates:

1- Disabled my anti-malware protection before checking for updates.
2- Ensured that I have no manual proxies, and that my LAN settings were set to 'Automatically detect settings.'
3- Ran the Windows Update troubleshooter.
4- Ran the Network Troubleshooter.
5- Emptied the Software Distribution\Downloads folder.

It would be one thing if I was receiving updates that then failed to install. But I'm not even getting updates in the first place. I'll be grateful for any other suggestions of how to regain the ability to receive updates.
