    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.

    :)

  2. Microsoft signals end of Paint program

    Microsoft has confirmed that it will continue to offer its graphics program Paint.

    In a recent update, it had listed Paint as a feature that would be either removed or no longer developed.

    Paint, renowned for its simplicity, has been part of the Windows operating system since its launch in 1985.

    Microsoft suggested it would not remain on Windows 10 by default but did say it would be available for free on the Windows Store.

    Currency Gadget no longer updating

    My currency gadget is no longer updating, it says: "Cannot connect to service", now I have the sidebar and gadgets installed from 8GadgetPack - Gadgets for Windows 10 / 8.1 / 7 on my windows 8.1 laptop.
    I have tried this: Fix Currency, Stock or Weather Gadgets Not Updating in Windows 7 and Windows Vista

    But it does not work because I don't have the folder as in step 5:
    5. Delete the folder named 53eab605-3b97-4da0-8e92-ea49d47af529


    Did Microsoft stop completely with this service?

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

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.


    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond No Longer Receiving Updates ... Is Microsoft Angry With Me? :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
