In the last couple of weeks, it always gets stuck on Checking Updates at 0%. 

I have tried repair, reset, and uninstall. 

I can't get any of them to fix it. After running uninstall, and trying to re-install, I get the message that the current version is installed--and it is!  I have re-booted the computer after every attempt. 

I am running windows 11 home and I believe all drivers are the latest, except as others have found, the Realtek audio drivers don't work well under windows 11.
