How To Fix Windows 10 Update Issue
By Google DNS setting
When you use Google Public DNS, you are changing your DNS “switchboard” operator from your ISP to Google Public DNS.
In most cases, the IP addresses used by your ISP’s domain name servers are automatically set by your ISP via the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). To use Google Public DNS, you need to explicitly change the DNS settings in your operating system or device to use the Google Public DNS IP addresses.
Before you change your DNS settings to use Google Public DNS, be sure to write down the current server addresses or settings on a piece of paper. It is very important that you keep these numbers for backup purposes, in case you need to revert to them at any time.
Google Public DNS IP addresses
The Google Public DNS IP addresses (IPv4) are as follows:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
The Google Public DNS IPv6 addresses are as follows:
2001:4860:4860::8888
2001:4860:4860::8844
You can use either address as your primary or secondary DNS server.
Windows 10 users can change the default DNS settings by go to Settings and selecting Network & Internet > Ethernet > Change adapter settings.
Now right click on your Internet network interface you use > Select Internet Protocol Version (TCP/IPv4) from list > Click on Properties >
It will display a field where the user can manually type in Google public DNS server IP addresses.
Next step just click OK and then close all windows on the screen. Reboot your system and then try to check for Windows update again.
If everything was changed correctly, Windows Update should now work properly and download with available patches, we will expect there is no longer error to be displayed.
After all done, change your DNS setting to your original IP addresses.
Hope this tutorial will work for you. Enjoy!
