    Update pause problem


    I think I must have accidentally clicked on Pause for 7 days at some point. When I discovered that it now said Updates will resume on June 26 I clicked on Pause for 7 days to cancel it. No box opened for me to make a change, so I clicked on it again. Then I discovered that clicking on that phrase did not open an action box, but actually directly changed my request adding several more weeks to my postponement. Can I undo that error?

    :)

    Update pause problem

    Update Pause

    Got it. But it is a bit confusing. At the top it said Check for Updates and when I clicked that it searched and found the Update but said something like can’t do it now because Pause is set and down further it said Resume Update
    . When I went to Settings Advanced I was offered a choice of a bunch of dates, but not a Cancel Pause.
    I think the message on the Update page would be clearer if the button said
    Remove (or Cancel) Pause. Resume Update suggests that you have canceled updates , not paused them .
