* Mod note on 16 October 2021.

A third-party tool to block all updates to Windows 10 is mentioned several times in this thread. Links to this tool have been removed because Microsoft policy is that one cannot post here any method of permanently stopping/blocking updates to Windows.

Everytime i enter windows update i cant see nothing in Windows Update tab, only "Something went wrong. Try to reopen settings later" .

3 days have went by of me trying to fix this, but nothing is working...

The troubleshoot shows nothing wrong...

Tried to reset the pc but i got an error (something went wrong)...

When i try to scan the disk it always gives me an error

Did sfc /scandisk in safe mode there was no problem

    That stop updates 10 does not fix the issue I have tried it and same error.

    Microsoft’s response re-install Windows 10.

    My response, fix your software

    The problem is the UsoSvc, this service is essential for Windows updates to work, open regedit and navigate to :-

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\UsoSvc

    In the right section locate "start" and right click on it select modify in the value data box that opens change the 4 to 2, restart computer and try updates now.
