    windows 10 updates not running


    Can't get windows updates to go. when i run the trouble shooter for updates, get the following:


    An error occurred while troubleshooting:

    An unexpected error has occurred. The troubleshooting wizard can't continue.

    package id: WindowsUpdateDiagnostic

    Path: c:\WINDOWS\Diagnostics\Index|windowsUpdateDiagnostic.xml

    Error Code: 0x803C0103

    Source: Engine

    User: who ever is logged in!

    Context: Elevated


    i've done the sfc /scannow and it doesn't find any issues

    i've tried:

    net stop wuauserv

    net stop bits

    net stop cryptsvc

    ren C:WindowsSoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old

    ren C:WindowsSystem32catroot2 Catroot2.old

    net start wuauserv

    net start bits

    net start cryptsvc

    Still get the same issue.


    Anyone have any other suggestions that won't remove current apps?

    Thanks in advance

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Windows 10 fails to update


    Thanks,

    The Users list compared to the Profile list you posted earlier tell me there is not an issue with Users (a known issue where there is a profile in the list, but not actual User folder).

    The error code suggests corruption in the CBS manifest:
    Try these steps one at time until the issue is resolved or you run out of steps.

    Is Windows activated?
    No? Activate Windows 10

    Launch Command Prompt (Admin)
    enter the following line
    reg query HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate /s
    If DisableWindowsUpdateAccess REG_DWORD 0x1

    launch regedit
    navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate
    change the value of DisableWindowsUpdateAccess to 0
    exit regedit
    exit Command Prompt

    Launch Windows Update

    Try the next suggestion if the issue is not resolved.
