Windows 10 hangs "checking for updates" troubleshooter also hangs
I JUST installed Windows 10 on my Lenovo B570 using the Free Upgrade Tool from Microsoft saved from when they were offering a free upgrade to all Windows 7 users. For some reason, instead of installing the latest version, it installed version 1709 and despite the fact that this is a BRAND NEW INSTALL, it WILL NOT update whatsoever!
It always hangs at "checking for updates" and it has been there for five hours and nothing shows at all
So, I ran the Windows Update troubleshooter but it ALWAYS hangs at "checking for pending restart" which is the first thing it looks for and it has been stuck at that spot for three hours and it has not moved passed "checking for pending restart" at all!
Not only is Windows Update not working right after the Windows 10 install, the Windows Update troubleshooter is also not working either!! This laptop has only had Windows 10 on it for 24 hours
Does anybody know what the problem could be and how to fix it? How could stuff be NOT WORKING after JUST the first day of Windows 10?
