not an error.. just nothing

So in the sys tray box thingy I see windows has updates for me.. oh deep joy

I click on the customize button and nothing happens, I done get a sausage, no error msg nothing. Also Windows update is not accessible from within the systray box. I Can however access it via control panel just fine.

This is the above the vertical >> in the systray

all other items in the systray box are working fine, volume etc.

its more of a pain in the butt than anything

Clean install yesterday

thanks in advance

Hey AngryPanda am not real sure of what you are doing that pop up from the systems tray I just left click on and away it goes so I don't understand what you are right clicking on?

I always add Windows Updates to my taskbar or quick start menu or even desktop for convenience saves an awful lot of clicking around in Cont Panel and programs etc. You just right click on it in program list and hit pin to taskbar or quick start either that or send to - (pick) desktop. :)

Hum well just add it to desktop AP doesn't take up too much space and just out of interest what security are you using?

The Action Centre I am not sure of what is going on there.

Yep go with what we have suggest mate no need to throw anything yet it could be something so easily fixed - take a nice long deep breath and ..... :)

AS soon as you do get it fixed - security asap.

AP what are your machines specs mate is this your build or a factory one? I am surprised that you have to upload SP1 at all as usually the 7 comes with it already.

So it begs the question how old is the OS you have? I had one a fair while ago now had this problem which the Readiness tool fixed.
