2023-02-18T17:33:28+00:00 I found a really easy fix. This error is due to the updates already being installed.
Simply scroll down in the Windows Updates, and:
- click on pause updates for 1 week.
- resume updates again
Windows updates will recheck for new updates and it will be fixed.
THIS! This fixed the issue. Super simple. Thank you!
