    I tried this method; it reset all the pending/failed installs of old, already installed updates, but then it checked again for them and brought them back up. This appears to be on Microsoft's end, and there may be nothing we can do. In the mean time, I can't work because my employer's security software checks for my update status. Which shows as not updated, since all these updates are pending.

    Try this. Worked here on 2 Surface devices

    Restart

    Go to Settings, Windows Update

    Click/tap Retry or Install All, keep clicking Retry.
