Hello,
Make sure dependency services such as Remote Procedure Call, RPC Endpoint Mapper are running.
Also, set the Start registry DWORD to 2 at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WaaSMedicSvc.
Hope this helps!
This browser is no longer supported.
Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
I wanted to install updates on my computer but whenever I open the windows update settings, it would only load with dots moving above. I cannot enable both the windows update medic service and windows update in the services. They are both disables and I cannot start them. A window saying "Access is denied" would always pop up when I try to set it to manual or automatic. I also changed the value of the Start DWORD to 1 but it would always return to 4. What can I do?

Hi,
Might check out if the GPO settings were set:
Location: Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Update.

Hi
first open task mgr.
end process stopupdates10guard
then disable stopupdates10guard in services.msc
Now follow what KapilArya said above. Now it won't change back to 4
Thank you
It worked for me! Start first with ARUMUGAPANDIAN's advice then KapilArya's, restart the computer
