Recently I came across a problem where a freshly installed Windows wouldn’t download updates.
The search for updates took forever or, if they did appear, they were stuck in the download queue (Pending Download) and there was no way to convince them to download. Clicking the Download button did nothing. Even the tried and tested methods of resetting the Windows Update service didn’t help.
Therefore, I started looking for another solution and that’s how I came across the update method using PowerShell.
