AU and auto Update problem in metered wifi connection.

I toggled metered on/off and sfc /scannow also. Sfc /scannowdid not report any errors. They did not help. Disabling and enabling adapter restored metered status and showed download button as below.



But download button is frozen and clicking has no action.
I could not understand what you meant by cold start not restart. Can you please explain?
