[SOLVED] Windows 10 wont check for updates

[Macz12]

Hi!


I tried recently checking for updates on windows 10 and it loads forever. Looked up on youtube different stuff and it said that type wuauserv in powershell opened with administrator and this text came back
start : This command cannot be run due to the error: The system cannot find the file specified.
At line:1 char:1

• start wuauserv
• ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

+ CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: ) [Start-Process], InvalidOperationException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : InvalidOperationException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.StartProcessCommand
Also on services when putting WindowsUpdate on automatic (its disabled) it automatically changes it to disabled.
What should i do?

this is probably same commands but in Command Prompt

Launch Command Prompt as administrator.
Type these command and press Enter after each command:

• net stop wuauserv
• net stop cryptSvc
• net stop bits
• net stop msiserver

Rename SoftwareDistribution and Catroot2 folder. Type these command and press Enter after each command:

• Ren %systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.bak
• Ren %systemroot%\system32\catroot2 catroot2.bak

Restart the BITS, Cryptographic, MSI Installer and the Windows Update Services by typing these command and press Enter after each command:

• net start wuauserv
• net start cryptSvc
• net start bits
• net start msiserver

Exit the Command Prompt window.
Restart your computer and check if it made a difference.

if that doesn't work
run these in powershell (admin)

• type SFC /scannow and press enter

once its completed, copy/paste this command into same window:

• Repair-WindowsImage -Online -RestoreHealth and press enter

SFC fixes system files, second command cleans image files, re run SFC after the 2nd command if it failed to fix all files the first time you ran it, and restart PC

which version of win 10 are you on?
right click start
choose run...
type winver and press enter
current is 20h2

It shows that im on version 1909 and i think that's the issue why my gpu usage is unstable.

I did the sfc /scannow and after that i put that line Repair-WindowsImage -Online -RestoreHealth in and this text came up https://ibb.co/YfNrPvT
