Windows Stuck at Checking for Updates Forever
Hello
So after running Win 10 for a couple of months, I decided to downgrade today to Win 7 because my PC stopped working since today morning probably due to corrupt Win 10 sys files (I couldn't even get it to repair or reset)
Anyhow, I formatted my SSD and clean installed Windows 7 x64 today evening and since then it has installed a few updates. When I check for updates manually, it just goes on checking and checking....
I downloaded and installed the Windows Update Troubleshooter Tool from https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...e-issues/en-us and ran it and it came up with an error.
Please check the attached screenshot.
Can someone kindly advise what this error is about and how do I resolve this
I saw many threads here about Windows getting stuck at Checking For Updates, but I thought of mentioning the error message here so that I can get some advise from the experts
Please help
Many thanks
UPDATE - I downloaded an ran the MS FixIt utility for update troubleshooting and even that is stuck at Checking for updates online
