install is not needed because no updates are applicable
If that's not the case and you are sure you need updates, then perhaps rename the
SoftwareDistribution folder.
You will lose you update history (not important)
To rename the SoftwareDistribution folder
Click Start, Choose Run.
In the Run box, type services.msc.
Click OK.
Right-click the Automatic Updates service.
Click Stop.
Stopping the service will take a moment.

Click Start. Choose Run.
In the Run box, type services.msc.
Click OK.
Right-click the Automatic Updates service.
Click Start.
Starting the service will take a moment.
