Postup řešení

1 Press Windows key + R, type 'cmd', and press Ctrl+Shift+Enter to open Command Prompt as administrator.
2 Type the following commands one by one, pressing Enter after each: 'net stop wuauserv', 'net stop cryptSvc', 'net stop bits', 'net stop msiserver'. These stop the Windows Update, Cryptographic, BITS, and MSI Installer services so we can safely reset them.
3 Now, rename the SoftwareDistribution and catroot2 folders. Type: 'ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old' and 'ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 catroot2.old'. This forces Windows to recreate these folders from scratch.
4 Restart the services by typing: 'net start wuauserv', 'net start cryptSvc', 'net start bits', 'net start msiserver'.
5 Press Windows key + I to open Settings, go to 'Windows Update', and click 'Check for updates'. Windows will now download fresh update files.
6 If the error persists, run the System File Checker: type 'sfc /scannow' in the Command Prompt and press Enter. This scans and repairs corrupted system files.
7 Finally, run DISM: type 'DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth' and press Enter. This repairs the Windows system image.

First, run the Windows Update Troubleshooter. Go to Settings → System → Troubleshoot → Other troubleshooters. Click 'Run' next to 'Windows Update'. This tool automatically detects and fixes common issues.
If that doesn't work, open Command Prompt as administrator (Windows key + X → 'Terminal (Admin)'). Run the command 'sfc /scannow' and press Enter. This checks for corrupted system files and repairs them. It may take 15-20 minutes.
After SFC, run DISM to repair the system image. In the same Command Prompt, type 'DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth' and press Enter. This fixes underlying system corruption that SFC might miss.
Next, reset the Windows Update components. Stop the services with 'net stop wuauserv', 'net stop bits', 'net stop cryptsvc'. Then rename the SoftwareDistribution and catroot2 folders as shown in the commands. Restart the services.
Finally, restart your PC and try checking for updates again.
If the error persists, consider performing an in-place upgrade repair using the Windows 11 Installation Assistant or Media Creation Tool. This reinstalls Windows while keeping your files and apps.

Press Windows key + R, type 'cmd', and press Ctrl+Shift+Enter to open Command Prompt as administrator. Click 'Yes' if prompted.
We'll stop the Windows Update services. Type the following commands one by one, pressing Enter after each: 'net stop wuauserv', 'net stop cryptSvc', 'net stop bits', 'net stop msiserver'. These stop Windows Update, Cryptographic Services, BITS, and MSI Installer.
Now, rename the SoftwareDistribution and CatRoot2 folders. Type: 'ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old' and press Enter. Then type 'ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 Catroot2.old' and press Enter. This forces Windows to create fresh folders.
Restart the services by typing: 'net start wuauserv', 'net start cryptSvc', 'net start bits', 'net start msiserver'.
Now, run the System File Checker. Type 'sfc /scannow' and press Enter. This will scan and repair corrupted system files. It may take a while.
After that, run DISM to repair the system image. Type 'DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth' and press Enter. This will download healthy files from Windows Update to replace corrupted ones.
Finally, restart your computer and try Windows Update again.
