Windows 10: Windows Update stuck at 0%

I recently got this PC on December 4th, 2024 and installed every update, and every additional update. But today I ran into a problem that my old computer ran into, the Windows Updates being stuck at 0% no matter what I do.

Windows Update stuck at 0%


Hi, I have a Windows 10 notebook, Windows updates downloaded and installed fine. I installed Office 2016 and when running WIndows Update it will list all available updates for Office, but it's always stuck at 0% downloading. Any hint? Thanks

UPDATE: Disconnected/Reconnected Internet access and restarted Windows and somehow that cleaned it and WIndows Update resumed normal operation.
