#Small tips - Windows update problems

Next post will be about Windows update problems.

Today at my job I had got a problem with update installation on Windows 8.1.

The updates was downloaded from my local WSUS server correctly but I couldn’t install it.

Solution was very simple.

First of all you need to stop windows update service.

1.      Type services.msc in windows search box. Look for Windows Update and stop it.

Next you need to delete two folders from C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution – DataStore and Download

 

Finally you can start windows update service again, and go to Control Panel to search and install updates.
