Hi,
I have a problem with the windows update. It has a red icon telling me that it is disabled and if I click on check updates it tells me that the service is not running. I searched for the windows update service and I could not find it in the list. Please help me find out what the problem is and how I can solve it.
Thank you
Hello dragosb,
Welcome to Seven Forums.
Type sevices in the start menu search box and hit enter. Make sure the Windows update service is started and set to automatic (Rt. click on a service and select properties to change).
Hope this helps.

I can not find the windows update service in the list.
Can you please tell what is the name of the service as I do not seem to find it
I do not have any windows update or automatic update service present
Please help
Sorry I meant to have this pic in the post, but that is what it is called.
Don't know why it wouldn't be there.
Unfortunatelly I do not have the service in the list.
Anyone with some ideas of what could be the problem?
Thank you
I have just checked and it says that it is activated and genuine
seems like I found the problem, the service was not registred and I had to register it mannualy with regsvr32.exe
can you post a screenshot of what you are seeing on windows update.
