    Reboot it again & then try if it works.

    If not try check for virus & malware errors that might be blocking it. I will recommend you to use Quick Heal Antivirus for virus check & AntiMalware for malware errors.

    Hope this will help you...!

    You have four free technical supports via phone from Microsoft. Make sure that you write down the error code exactly, so you can give it to technical support person.

    There are a few things that could be causing this issue, please try these steps first,

    1. Open Administrative Tools by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel,and then clicking Administrative Tools.

    2. Double-click Services. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    3. Right-click the Windows Update service, and then click Stop.

    4. Click start, then click all programs, then click accessories, then right click command prompt and choose to run as administrator.

    Type:
    net stop wuauserv
    regsvr32 wuapi.dll /s
    regsvr32 wuaueng.dll /s
    regsvr32 wucltux.dll /s
    regsvr32 wudriver.dll /s
    regsvr32 wups2.dll /s
    regsvr32 wups.dll /s
    regsvr32 wuwebv.dll /s
    net start wuauserv
    exit

    Restart the system and see if it can update now.
    If this does not fix the problem you could also try repairing the BITS service, by following the below article:
