Fixes For Windows Update Not Running Error Problem

Before you can install a Windows Update, the Windows Update service should be running first. Normally, this service runs automatically with Windows. If this service is not running, you cannot install a Windows Update. If you want to install a Windows Update but you cannot because of the error, try checking the service. Click “Start,” “Control Panel,” “Performance and Maintenance,” “Administrative Tools,” and then “Services.”

On the Services window, scroll down and look for the Windows Update service. Right-click it and select “Properties.” In “Startup type,” set it to “Automatic.” Click “Start” to start the service manually then click “OK.” Try installing the Windows Update again and see if it works.
