Windows 10: Update stuck on pending download - Cannot remove from list

After a new clean reinstall of Windows 11, I checked for updates once. Most updates installed successfully but one update - KB4023057, is stuck on "Pending Download" and does not progress. If I click on "Download Now" it shows "Downloading 0%" for less than half a second, then back to "Pending Download". This also prevents me from re-checking for updates for other produces e.g., Office.

Windows Update Stuck

Updating my laptop which I haven't used for 6 months.
I go to Settings, Update and Security, and there are a list of 10 updates, 2 of which say pending install, the others say pending download. Left laptop on overnight and still saying the same this morning.
Ran Windows Troubleshooting Updates twice, both times found no problem.
Have good Wi-Fi signal. Have re-booted several times. Now stuck. Can you please suggest how I get round this please.

 

Windows 10 store on phone stuck pending

Yes! Yes! Yes! I have found the solution a little bit typical but it will save you from resets and losing your data.

STEPS

1. Select update all in downloads and updates in store in windows 10 mobile phone.

2. Let them start downloading .

3. Now select pause all in same menu.

4. This time you will get two option in front of all apps resume and cancel even on those apps which are stuck.

5. Now cancel the every app from list by clicking on cross one by one.

6. Now you have got empty download list but still you will see stuck apps in phone's app list at pending.

7. Again open the store and search there for the same app which is stuck on your phone.

8. Click on install on app page in store and wait.

9. A pop up menu will come written something went wrong just close it and keep waiting on same page.

10. Now the final step app will start downloading automatically and what you have to do is just click on cross when it comes.

11. BINGO! App has been removed from your app list no hard reset no lose of data just a little patience is required i have found the solution myself because i was sailing in same boat.

 

Store downloads all stuck on Pending

I'm trying to download the SpotBright app and I just noticed today (since updating to Win 10 I have never used the store app) that all the downloads and updates are stuck in Pending mode.

I have tried the following:

• Restarted computer
• Log out and Log In to windows store
• wsreset
• net stop wuauserv - it couldn't stop
• windows update troubleshooting - admin mode did not find any problems
• restart windows update service - service could not be stopped
• remove/rename the software distribution folder - no such folder exists

How do I fix the store so Spot Bright downloads?

Alternatively, is there another way to get the spotbright app without downloading thru the store? I really just want to get all the spotlight images for desktop wallpaper.

Thanks in Advance
