Hello,

I recently found out that the Windows Update Service is constantly disabled and when i try to change the startup type (e.g. to Automatic), it goes immediately back to Disabled. This does not let me start the service and thus i can't download any apps from the Microsoft Store or get any Windows updates. What can i do?
