Problems with my Computer
Hi. I hope this is the right forum for my questions, but I think it is. I recently upgraded to Windows 10 about a month ago and am having some problems. The first is with updating it. I have gone into the settings/update and security/Windows Update, and my computer says it's downloading updates, but it's stuck at 0% and has been for the last two weeks. I downloaded a tool from Microsoft called WindowsUpdateDiagnostic that is supposed to fix problems with Windows Update, but when I run it, it tells me that the "service registration is missing or corrupt." I have no idea what this means or how to fix it. Does anyone have any suggestions?
The second problem is with installing certain software that I had installed at one point when my computer was running Windows 8.1 and later uninstalled. I want to reinstall them, but I get various errors when I try. One program, which few people have probably heard of because it's for the blind, tells me that there is something wrong with a DLL. Another, Adobe Acrobat DC, tells me that there is a newer version already installed when I know there is not. It also gives me the error code 1722. The full error message is ""Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action: InstallWebResources, location: ...\RdrServicesUpdat..." Any suggestions? I would really appreciate any help. Thanks.
