  1. Windows 10 won't update


    I tried switching to the Windows Insider Program a few days ago, but my computer isn't upgrading properly. I have been able to upgrade to Windows 10 Enterprise Version 1909 OS build 18363.778.

    The problem now is that when I go to the Windows Update screen, I see a red exclamation mark. When I click "Check for updates," it says, "Your device is missing important security and quality fixes." It doesn't find anything to install, and nothing happens after it searches.

    I have tried going to C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download and deleting the files, but it didn't work.


    I want to install WSL version 2 https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/wsl2-install, so I need to get to OS build 18917 or later. I was able to do this on another Windows machine, but this one is stuck.

    You have to reinstall the windows updater, then restart the updating service.

    Windows 10 won´t start any program as Administrator

    Hello. I´m having this issue since installed one of the latest Windows 10 system updates.

    When I try to open any program that requires Administrator confirmation (that screen with the Yes/No question), this dialog won´t appear anymore. The screen background stays darkened and nothing happens.

    1. Using Windows 10 Home (x64)
    2. My microsoft user account is properly checked
    3. I´m the administrator of the PC
    4. Already tried do create another administrator user account - same problem, no success
    5. Cannot start any program/service that requires administrator authorization (not even regedit)
    Please help!
