Windows update broken after latest update?

Windows update installed KB4577671 the other day on a Win 10 64 bit version 1909 system.  

 

After installation and reboot, Win Update removed the message that Windows 10 version 2004 was coming" and shows a non specific problem in Windows Update troubleshooter. 

 

Are others seeing this same problem?  Suggestions on what to do?

 

Thanks,

 

Charley

    Hello charleyrich,

     

    What exactly the troubleshooter reported you back?

     

    Regards.

      Problems found
      Check for Windows Update issues  Detected
       
      In Details: 
      Issue not present for 3 items
       
      and in Detection Details:
      Problem with BITS service : The requested service has already been started. System.Management.Automation.RemoteException More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2182. System.Management.Automation.RemoteException 
       
      So, nothing really actionable.
      I have tried several of the solutions shown in other Microsoft Tech notes: such as sfc /scannow  and DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth which did not help.

        charleyrich, ensure that these services are running:

         

        • Cryptographic Services
        • Windows Update
        • Windows Update Medic Service
        • Background Intelligent Transfer Service
        • Remote Procedure Call
        • RPC Endpoint Mapper
        • DCOM Server Process Launcher

         See if it makes any difference.
