    Pause Updates


    In the new update there is a feature to "PAUSE UPDATES" with no option to turn this off. I for one do not need to pause my updates I like to install them as they are released.

    Pause Updates

    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 Pause Updates :) Best regards.


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