Windows 10: Is windows update down or experiencing issues?

Hello,At our office, starting Friday 4/12/24, computers with fresh Windows 10 10.0.19045 installs are giving a "Couldn't connect to update service". If they do manage to connect after several attempts, downloads are very slow, running at about 500kbps and spiking at 1.8Mbps. We've checked our network hardware to make sure nothing is being blocked/filtered/throttled and it seems all is good on our end. Wondering if there are issues right now with the windows update servers themselves?Edit: We've also tried changing DNS servers to 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 and the issue persists.

Came here to suggest this.*Laugh :laugh:

Definitely not an issue with the Windows Servers as I just re-installed yesterday and got all my updates.

It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

Heres a couple examples:

It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP

Windows update issues

It works, but I still need to fix it so that way I dont have to plug computers directly to the modem to get windows update to work. It was also blocking me from installing directx.
