Hi @DSPatrick
Thanks for your support, is there any way to find what are the KBs scanned or running now?

Hello @Vijay-3828
I found out that the easiest way to force Windows update check is to use a command in the Run dialog. There are other commands from CMD and PowerShell as well.
Open the Run dialog (Windows key + R) or open Windows Search and run the following command:
control update
This will trigger the Windows Update graphical user interface which will start checking for new updates. This method works on all versions of Windows including Windows 10 and Windows 11.
There is another command that will trigger the same effect but only works in Windows 10 and Windows 11:
ms-settings:windowsupdate

Using this command ( ms-settings:windowsupdate), any parameter / switches are there which is equal to "check for update from microsoft"
