DaMan Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I go to Windows update in control panel and tell it to check for updates and I get: "windows update cannot currently check for updates because the service is not running. You may need to restart." I've restarted multiple times and still no luck. I checked for solutions on microsoft forums, one sollution I found was to update defender first, I do this and it tells me defender isnt installed. I cant install it because the installer says it comes with Vista ( updated from vista to 7 ). View this thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Think Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 You have a problem with the service. Go into services control and make sure update service is set to auto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
