You need to post some system info. So we can better assist you. My 1st question is what firewall do you have up? If you have Comodo Pro firewall you must uninstall it, this was a major problem some months ago. I encountered it for 2 months until I found the solutions....(complete uninstall).

Re-register the Windows Update DLL with the commands below

Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then click OK.

Type the following commands. Press ENTER after each command.

regsvr32 wuapi.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll
regsvr32 wucltui.dll
regsvr32 wups.dll
regsvr32 wups2.dll
regsvr32 wuweb.dll

Not sure if this will help, but certainly worth a try, have a look HERE.

 

 

Good luck.
