Hi Goku, I had tried that previously but... I don't give up easily. This morning I turned the pc on and an alert came up that 2 potentially harmful programs had been found, I cleaned and restarted about 3 times and lo and behold I was able to turn Automatic Updates on. I went into Services to double check and it was how it should be. Thanks for your help :)

Hi Goku, Thanks for your reply. I did as you suggested and am still getting the same error message. What should I try next?

Hi everyone, I've joined coz every now and then I need help. And sometimes I can be useful.

I had a Windows Security Alert informing me that Automatic Updates had been turned off - don't know how :confused: I followed the instructions to enable the updates by going into Computer Management but when I attempt to change the Startup type from Disable to Automatic I get Error 1058 The service cannot be started either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it :eek: Please help, pretty please, it's been driving me round the bend.
