    I am having the exact same problem. It tells me KB2976978 is installed, but the troubleshooter tells me it's not. So frustrating!

    I had the same problem as all of you did so what i did was went into the installed updates, Then i uninstalled the optional updates the one that seem to of fixed it for me was taking of KB3055343. I did what everyone else did checked the forms for a answer but like usual nothing, So i went thru  stuff that was installed an found that one being uninstalled seem to do the trick..

    Hope it helps others.  :)

    Glad it worked for you; didn't fix it for me.  I uninstalled all updates that were installed after the update icon disappeared from my system tray, rebooted, and still a problem.  And the troubleshooter is still telling me KB2976978 is missing and that's the problem, but it's not missing, and I've reinstalled it multiple times.  My computer is less than 2 weeks old, so I know it's not a problem with my computer.

    What did you do after uninstalling it? did the W10 icon just appear after restarting? I uninstalled it and restarted and it didn't change anything.
