    Hi ,I got the same issue just yesterday and i fixed it by accident (kinda).

    All I did was go to Settings<system<troubleshoot<other trouble-shooters and did a troubleshoot on my Windows update .

    Hope this helps you and everyone else who encounters this issue :)

    I have resolved by resetting to factory settings, it works now. But I may see the issue again when any patch applied.
