@trihelm1,

Welcome to HP Support Community,

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

Restart Your PC
A simple restart can sometimes clear any temporary update issues.

Run Windows Update Troubleshooter

• Go to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Additional troubleshooters.
• Select Windows Update and then click Run the troubleshooter. Follow the on-screen instructions.

Manually Install Pending Updates

• Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update.
• If updates are still showing as "retry," try downloading and installing them manually.

Uninstall Problematic Updates (Optional)

• Go to Settings > Update & Security > View Update History.
• If you notice a specific update that’s causing the problem, click Uninstall updates and remove it.

Try Updating Again
After clearing the cache and resetting, try checking for updates again.

I hope these steps help resolve the issue
