I tried that, but no luck for me but I have seen others have success with that.

I did find a SOLUTION for my problem and it has been posted a few times with
others having success...

In C:\Windows\System32 directory rename spupdsvc.exe to spupdsvc.old and
then re-try windows update.  Simple as that.  Updated as expected.  Note that
I did first try what was suggested by "Closed Socket" and that was simple to
try as well.  No idea if both are needed.
