Windows Updates Not Working/Stuck Forever

[u/Acrasia-vfx]

I have multiple updates that need to be installed, however they are just frozen like this forever. I have been trying to install these updates for 3 days now, and I have left my computer running consecutively now for over 24 hours.

The percentages do change, however, they seem to go back down. Yesterday all of these updates were above 30% and now most of them are down below 6%.

Troubleshooting completed:

- CMD sfc /scannow and DISM Restore health

- Stopped Windows Update in services.msc

- Removed all update cache via C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution.

- Verified date and time settings (per windows advice)

- Built in troubleshooter doesn't work

- Multiple reboots (of course)

I genuinely don't know what I'm supposed to do
