Clean Install Win7 x86. Windows Updates not working :-(
Thank you for reading through these for me. I hope you can help me get this working. I appreciate it so much!

WELL..........BAM!!!
I am soooooo confused???
I walked away after I posted this for your help.
Sat down at the laptop and was welcomed by this on the screen.
HOW??? I have spent hours with this. Any ideas?
After a Clean install you will surly have over a 100 updates.
That is what your last picture is indicating.
You need to install Windows 7 updates next.
I personally install about 10 at a time and reboot. Then do another 10 and so on.
Note:
Windows Servers are probably very busy messing with Windows 10 downloads so it may take even longer than normal.
I marked as unsolved for a minute here....
Trusted Installer keeps stopping. It is set to Automatic in services. Ughhhh!
How can I fix that?
I feel back to base 1.
I have been at this mess for several days.
ETA: I have clean installed 3 times over the past 2 weeks.
It was suggested to me (not here) that my media may have been corrupt.
My disc is a retail that I purchased, I honestly doubt that my install disc is the issue.
I would leave Windows checking for updates overnight to find nothing in the morning.
We must not be on the same page.
Your picture show that Windows 7 want you to install updates.
Did you try to download and install any of the Important Updates?
I am going to hang my hat for tonight.
Would one of you be so kind as to give me the correct order in case I decide to reinstall?
What I mean is....Troubleshooter first...or SURTool first? Or Fixit tools first?
Thank you.
If you are still having update problems I recommend do this tutorial exactly as it instructs again.
Then we will need Neol to continue with proper guidance.

It would also be helpful to complete this tutorial by Brink and post here.
Windows Genuine and Activation Issue Posting Instructions
Thank you...This is what I did earlier today. ~~But I had tried some FixIt tools from MS.
Sooo... SURTool is very first.
Sfc /scannow is second.
Error Codes third.
Windows Log fourth.
~~Just so I am clear...I should not do any of FixIt tools offered on the MS sites?
I had no issues with Activating Windows...I will follow that guide tomorrow.
Is the purpose of that to hopefully find an issue that is hiding in there?
I am not familiar with it.
And Thank you again for you help. I will be back tomorrow afternoon.
