Windows 10: Windows Update and Microsoft Store.

I updated my windows recently from Windows 7 to Windows 10. For some reason the windows update wont work. And my Microsoft Store wont open any app, giving this error 0x80004003.
I saw that my services did not have the service of Windows Update. I looked up the registry files and for some reason the wuauserv file wasn't there as well. I looked up online and tried to load it back to the services but it wont work. Can you kindly resolve this matter as soon as possible.

If i try to search for windows update, it gives me this error: 0x80070424



Thank You

Microsoft signals end of Paint program

Microsoft has confirmed that it will continue to offer its graphics program Paint.

In a recent update, it had listed Paint as a feature that would be either removed or no longer developed.

Paint, renowned for its simplicity, has been part of the Windows operating system since its launch in 1985.

Microsoft suggested it would not remain on Windows 10 by default but did say it would be available for free on the Windows Store.
