    Cannot turn off Pause option


    For some reason, I cannot turn off Pause Update on Windows 10 Update. The yellow pause button is showing but when I open Advanced, there is no option to turn off Pause. If I look at the options, the first date given is tomorrow but that stays that way each day.

    How can resume updates please?

    Home or Pro? Your 1st screenshot doesn't show the additional options available in Pro, so I'll assume Home.


    Your 2nd screenshot shows it is still 'Checking for updates...'. When that completes a 'Resume updates' button should appear on that page. The fact that it hasn't finished setting up a 'pause' (implied by 'checking for updates' still showing) probably also explains why it won't let you set a date (yet).


    Check your network connectivity, that is required in order to check for updates. If it seems it will never finish checking for updates, try restarting the PC.

    Thank you. I left it on checking for updates and, eventually, it came up with a couple and then updated.

    Not trying to threadnap, but I am having this problem too,My updates are set to resume tomorrow, will they resume at 12:00am tomorrow, or 24 hours after I accidently paused my updates today?




    Update, my updates resumed working today this afternoon, guess it was one full day.
