Multiple devices unable to connect to Windows Update
I have now seen 8 devices that are unable to connect and download Windows Updates. They vary between Windows 10 and Windows 11 and all started in the past month. When trying to run updates I am given...
Are you using any Anti-Malware, Firewall or security program?
Try performing Clean Boot and see if the problem persists?

There is no AV/AM software running on it. The firewall is on in the default configurations. I disabled it completely and the same error is appearing.
I tried the clean boot and when checking Windows Update, it shows being up to date but as soon as I click Check, the error reappears.
One thing I find interesting is that if I view the Update History and then go to Uninstall Updates, I do see one update that says it was installed yesterday. Are updates running but just not appearing?
