Hi guys,

I permanently stuck on "Windows can't update important files and services while the system is using them...restart the computer". I tried removing SoftwareDistribution directory, and run commands as like ChingghisKhan in https://www.sysnative.com/forums/wi...-install-important-updates-infinite-loop.html

I attach CBS log file

Please find output of "reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate" below

Good. Now, reboot your machine and check for windows updates. Let me know how many updates show that need to be installed (excluding the Windows 10 update).
 
Hi Brian,

Thanks a lot, It's not showing any updates but Windows 10!

I will try to install Windows 10 and let you know!
