2. Download the latest update for the windows update client


This should be the first step in the troubleshooting process, especially if your windows 7 operating system is a fresh or new installation and this is the first time you are checking for windows updates.

You should always download and install the latest update to the Windows Update Client for best results.

The latest available update (June 2016) is included in the following Rollup Pack:

I have included below the direct links to Microsoft’s download centre for the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the update.
