    Windows Updates item gone from Settings/Update and Security


    Winver: 1809, build 17763.805. Issue: Windows Updates item gone from the left hand column of Settings/Update and Security. Disappeared after installing KB4519338. The update installed ok and I noticed the Settings issue after a warmstart. Obviously that causes all kinds of problems. I had been using a combination of GPEDIT, WUSHOWHIDE, and the Windows Update Catalog to tip toe through the available updates. I have done all the recommended deferrals, disables/enables to ratchet down undesirable updates.
    GPEDIT futzing with Control Panel show or not show Windows Update has not helped. Attempting to add/remove WU items from the Context Menu have not been successful.
    My workaround has been to use WUMgr ver 1.0 for managing WU. That seems to be successful, but I sure would like to get back to being able to use Win10 Settings as designed.
    I can upload a bunch of clips, but rather than do that I'd like to solicit some ideas? head scratching? disappeared - really?
    TIA, Dick

    :)

    Windows 7 Ultimate (64) Security updates not installing.

    I have been having problems in installing the updates that I have listed below. For each update I attempted to install them individually but they would not install. I also downloaded the SURT 6.1 KB947821 v27. The problem has been going on now for about 2 months. (whenever the issue with the updates comes to mind I am never near my pc). Thank you in advance.
