Windows Update, restart your computer to install important updates?

joimaiveer · Feb 15, 2017

Everytime I click "restart now" it would just restart the laptop without updating everything.

Running Windows 7.

Need any more information?

My most recent check for updates: never
updates were installed: never
you receive updates: for Windows only.

Hi and welcome to Sysnative. Sorry for the delay. Please do the following.

1. Click your start button and type cmd in the search box.
2. Right-click on cmd that comes up in the search results and select Run as administrator. Answer Yes to the UAC prompt if it appears.
3. Copy/Paste the following into the command-prompt window and hit enter.
reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate /s >1.txt && notepad 1.txt

4. Notepad will open showing the WU info. Can you copy and paste this into your next reply?
