2015-07-31T05:56:59+00:00 I've found this fix in numerous blogs, I can get up to the command prompt with the wuauclt.exe /updatenow inserted. But how do I make it start or continue? There are no prompts to click on

As he originally suggested
- Access this file location C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Downloadand delete everything there. (Note delete only content found there and not the Download folder itself)
