Service has started but no screen

$

As the subject suggests, the Windows update service is active in Services.msc but when selecting it in the start menu, the expected box doesn't appear. I've tried a couple of MS repair utilities where one verifies the PC can connect to the online service but the problem still persists. I have Windows 7 64-bit. Thanks and hope you can help.

I have Windows Update set to install updates automatically every day at 3 AM. Yet, it keeps interrupting me during the day with a window that says it will perform the update within a few minutes unless I postpone it. I don't want to be interrupted during the day, I'd like it to do what I have asked it to do and update at 3 AM. I thought it might be doing this because the computer was asleep or...

Hi guys, I bought a copy of Windows 7 Home Premium LCP for OEM Software from Amazon for use with Bootcamp on my Mac. I only used it a few times and then uninstalled it.

Would any of you guys know if it...

Would I have to deactivate my windows 7 key on my other hard drive in order to be able to activate it on my main hard drive

So I just thought of doing a SFC scan now to check if my system is good with no corrupt files or not. Now it seems there are no issues, even Microsoft has said the win update that caused the files to go corrupt is a false alarm in SFC check. The issue I have: (I've tried removing the update and then re-doing the SFC can now but no result.) The Tech Cookbook – Windows 7 update (KB3022345)...

The Microsoft update around the 10th June 2015 stops my Internet Explorer working. So I do a restore and it works and it does it again next time I turn my computer on. Then I disabled automatic updates and it STILL stops Internet Explorer working. So EVERY time I start my computer I have to restore it back to before the original update. :o I think Apple is looking pretty good

Windows updates have been failing for months now. Error code 80073712 is the most common error code and the one I got when I tried updating today. Sometimes there have been other error codes as well but yesterday I tried running every fixit type program I could find reference to in the Microsoft Windows 7 suite and perhaps they have helped a bit. sfs/scannow ran with no errors. I attach a CBS zip...
