Can you help us improve? Resolved my issue. Clear instructions. Easy to follow. No jargon. Pictures helped. Didn't match my screen.
Incorrect instructions. Too technical. Not enough information. I cancelled the update and restarted my computer, but now Windows Update says has never recently checked for them, nor has recently installed any when it had just this morning.
I've run the Microsoft Update Diagnostic, and it comes up with an error: 0x, although when I searched it up, other people's error description did not match mine. Both Microsoft FixIt and running scannow on the command prompt came up empty - no other problem was detected.
I feel that my antivirus may potentially be the cause, since I read that if it checks a particular file, then it might cause this error, but I don't know how to make it not check that file. Any other solutions would be helpful, thanks. There is nothing wrong with your computers! The problem is a hopelessly inadequate Windows Update service.

They want you replacing it with Windows I have seen cases where the green bar continued overnight and finally found the updates, then spent many more hours downloading those updates.
My advice: don't even bother until the September updates, or be very, very patient. Stop trying to fix your computer. You are likely to make a mess of it for no benefit. Trying to fix your computer is pointless, when the problem is your supplier. Sort of like taking a part your car's engine because it does not start, when the problem is the gas tank is empty.
