[SOLVED] Windows Update not opening

[Joshooaaa]

However I try and open it, Windows Update simply doesn't open. Not from settings, not by searching for it, nothing. It worked when I first installed Windows 11, but about a month after that until now, months later, absolutely nothing I've tried has fixed it. Would ideally prefer not to reset windows if possible. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, cheers!

Just tried that, didn't do anything sadly. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Had a problem like that once: try selecting Pause Updates, reboot, then Restart Updates. That seemed to work for me; worth a shot.
