Windows 10: Windows Updates???

Both of these machines are running surprisingly well, and checking each of the updates with Device Manager tells me "Windows is using the best driver for my device" or something to that effect. Later maybe WU will decide to update them. Right now I'm happy. And with a 1 TB HDD it's not like I need the space.

 

Still have a problem! Running the Troubleshooter in WU, I got this:





After running it with different "Fix" options it came back with NO problems. Everything fixed. Yet the updates are still there, not deleted as the Troubleshooter supposedly did. Now I'm thinking just blow them out with the "Storage clean up" option in system and see what happens.

Windows Defender does update properly with the WU run. I just don't know. Maybe these will shed some light on this?














Would a Reset Windows Update do any good here?

 

OK, via Device Manager I've updated quite a few items. They no longer appear on this list, but they do not show up in WU Update History or the Updates To Uninstall list either. Anyway, here's what's left and I can't figure out the device to "click" to update.





And to top it off, I've got more "Pending" file size now than when I started!





I can't help but think this goes back to my original problem Windows Update Error 0x80240439

I see there's starting to be a group of us with update issues. Also still question if the Reset Windows Update would help or make this worse?

 

Are you an Insider member subscribed to either the fast or slow ring perhaps?

Nope, not an Insider. Look at my last post above yours.

 

OK, I looked at that post so what am I supposed to be noticing?

 

Maybe it would help if you explain how you got to 15063.296 without the 5/9/2017 Windows Update?

Did you do a clean install?

 

I thought you might find it interesting that now that I'm down to only 5 items left uninstalled, the Pending Updates has gone from 18 to 25+MB.

I did get here 05/09/2017 with the Windows 10 Upgrade Assistant. The whole process went without incident.

 

Two more ideas and then I would hope someone else could chime in and help you because I'm out of ideas:

1. Make sure the "Give me Microsoft Updates is unchecked." If checked, uncheck it, reboot and try again:




2. Completely Disable Windows Update from downloading (and installing) drivers:
Enable or Disable Driver Updates in Windows Update in Windows 10

 

Turned off the "other" updates. Shutdown, start up, run WU and no updates. Says I'm up to date. THEN checking the Show/Hide Updates Troubleshooter, Microsoft Silverlight (KB4017094) is no longer on the list! Not in the Update history or the Uninstall Updates List either.

Next, my advanced Options page does not have an Enable/Disable option regarding drivers as shown in the tutorial. Mine is just like yours posted above.

I really do appreciate your attempts to help. It would be nice if I knew what I was doing.

Edit: Oh and BTW, SFC /SCANNOW found no problems.

 

Wait, but you didn't get the error you were reporting previously? It just said no updates available?

Then your error code problem is now fixed?

If so, then you don't need to bother with disabling driver updates.

 

See here to disable driver updates via control panel:

You could try a repair upgrade, it will keep your apps/settings, but it will reset Windows.

Or try this, download WF.bat and run it as admin.

 

Hey. The repair is the last thing I want to try. I'm convinced this has to do with the CU on 05/09/17. Strangely enough the same thing is going on with Gayle's hp Laptop.

The WF.bat, run it from Command Prompt or PowerShell?

Keep in mind, I really don't know what I'm doing.

 

Did the Reset with no change, except now MS Silverlight (mentioned in Post #23) is back on the list. Something that may be of interest, each time I run WU the KB size Pending Updates & Preview Builds keeps increasing, but there's no new additions to the number of updates.

This is eating my lunch!
