Windows 10: Windows Update not working even after deleting StopUpdates10

So I had this problem for a week where I can't update Windows and today saw a process called "StopUpdates10" while in Task Manager, I immediately went to open file location, closed the StopUpdates10 processes anddeleted StopUpdates10 by just clicking delete and emptying the recycle bin, and even after that Windows Update still doesn't work, I started BITS and Windows Update service in services.msc, and ran the Windows Update troubleshooter twice: one time it fixed registry things for the Windows Update and the second time it said there is no problem.

Windows Update Manager combined with stopupdates10

Toolkit Item: Introducing Windows Update Manager – Replacement for WUMT – Win10.Guru

I have been reading how users are running stopupdates10
StopUpdates10 3.1.0.101 - Take your Control over Windows updates!

With this tool to manage their updates, any here using these?

 

Deleting contacts from Windows 10


When you say Windows Mail Live are you referring to Mail app or Windows Live Mail?

I suggest you to try the steps provided below and check if it helps.

• Open Windows Live Mail.
• Press Ctrl + 3 using your keyboard. Right-click on the contact to delete it if it is a single contact.
• Highlight all contacts by pressing Ctrl + A.
• Click Delete located on the Ribbon bar.
• Click OK when you see the message These contacts will also be deleted from Hotmail, Messenger, and other Windows Live services.

After following the steps above, all your contacts that you have manually added to your account will be deleted however, contacts coming from third-party sites such as Facebook will not be deleted unless you remove Facebook from your account.

For Mail app:

Open People app then delete the contact.

Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.

 

Unable to delete a folder - Invalid folder name


Suggestion:

1. Run chkdsk x: /r to make sure that there's no HD corruption.
   x: is the drive containing the folder you want to delete.
2. Try to delete the folder again. If still does not work, go to step 3.
3. Download: Download - Linux Mint and create a bootable USB using: Rufus - Create bootable USB
4. Boot up with Linux Mint and try to delete the folder again.
   NOTE: Unlike WinPE. Linux does not have any Windows permission imposed to it so it is easier to delete.
