OK, good. Reboot your machine and let me know if your issue is now resolved.
Sequence of Events
1. BEFORE rebooting I clicked "Check for Updates" in "Windows Update" window, which was allowed. The "Download Windows 10" was showing. It was checking and neverending.
2. I rebooted multiple times, nothing happened and still had the "Restart Computer to install important updates"
3. Instead of a soft reboot, I did a total shutdown. Before shutting down, Windows then installed 7 updates (unlike the restart -- restart did nothing, no updates installing)
4. When Windows restarted, the Windows logo appeared for a split second, and it was installing some update
5. After entering windows, the "Restart Computer to install important updates" is still visible
6. On multiple hard reboots / soft reboots, the issue does not go away
Issue still exists, cannot update, although 7+ updates have installed
Thanks,
