Try the System File Checker:

  1. Press the Windows + R keys on your keyboard. This is going to bring up the Run utility.
  2. Type in “cmd” and press the Ctrl + Shift + Enter keys on your keyboard. Doing so, you’re launching the Command Prompt with administrative permissions.
  3. If prompted, click Yes to allow the Command Prompt to make changes on your device.
  4. Once in the Command Prompt, type in the following command and press Enter to execute it: sfc /scannow
  5. Wait for the SFC scan to finish scanning your computer and repairing corrupt files. This may take a long time; ensure that you don’t close the Command Prompt or shut your computer down.
  6. Restart your device after the scan is complete. Check if you’re able to update after the restart has finished.

After battling with this on and off all day, 10 hours later it disappeared all on it's own and there is no trace of it in update history

Thanks for all your help and suggestions

You still might want to run the Troubleshooter again just to see if it picks up anything. (y)
