Update & Security not working - Microsoft Community


surface pro 4

edition: 10 pro
version: 1703
os build: 15063.608

     i've looked @ other similar questions , solutions given. don't think problem same. if try open update & security settings window stop responding. doesn't freeze because typing cursor still blink. also, can still move settings window around. including minimizing and maximising it.

    think may have caused problem. while updates have been failing install. in attempt stop updates know fail continuing i've tried on multiple occasions forced them stop. noticed fans turn on when surface pro 4 trying install these updates. opened task manager , force stopped app hogging cpu , ram resources. big mistake on part. , i'm in situation. know stupid on part.

    did install software recently. software old hp printer. deskjet f4280. don't know if software may have messed up.

moved from: (windows / windows 10 / windows update, recovery, & backup)
