I have updated my laptop to windows 10 been using it for 2 months now , no updates have been downloaded when I check there are some in the box but it says under them waiting to download one says downloading but nothing is happening . Is there something I am not doing to get the downloads to work. I do have a internet connection would appreciate some help
Sometimes it will show you nothing is happening but it actually is, just give it time and wait it out . While its doing that can you surf the web, if so ? Then you know at least you have the internet and from what you mention you do.

do you have battery saver on?
yesdo you have battery saver on?
Turn it off for a test, refresh. Battery saver eliminates background services, one of which is win updates. Ask me how I know :-)yes
Do you have the windows firewall on or off?yes
Are you using a 3rd party firewall such as Norton Internet Security as the firewall?
If you are then that was my problem. I turned on the Windows firewall instead and all my updates worked! My store apps had been stuck and I was able to update all 18 of them perfectly as well as the windows update that kept failing.
Give that a shot!
