Same problem here, but solved it deleting all files in C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download and running this script https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Reset-Windows-Update-Agent-d824badc

Thank you, Dionisio, that worked for me, very much appreciate it. Finally, the download started and the installation is working through as I type this. For the record, I checked to see if just clearing the download folders would do it, but that alone did not work, had to run the utility. On my way, now. Thanks again.
- Andrew FoxJul 30, 2018Copper ContributorThanks it worked. Make sure to run as admin and have program restart the computer.

What option have you chosen out of the 15?
For me it didn't work out. :(
- Andrew FoxJul 30, 2018Copper ContributorI think it was option 2, the one that says something about resetting the update files. Then when it's done choose the option to restart computer. It did not work for me the first time as well. Before you try the second attempt be sure to delete the files again. Hope this helps.
