Issue:

The Windows Update settings page appears broken. The 'Check for Updates' button doesn't work and sometimes even disappears.

Expected Behaviour:

The Windows Update settings page should look like this.

in a powershell as Admin please run one after the other.

first
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

then (this may take sometime)
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

finally
sfc /scannow

restart the system. then try Windows Update again.
