Windows Update was blocked unintentional.

Hello.

So I did every step from your instructions on Windows 10 64bit except "DNSCrypt" and "Proxifier". I did not do those two.

When I did the Hosts-File,
I only used the "windowsX_spy.txt" and "windowsX_extra.txt".
I did not use "windowsX_update.txt", as I still want to receive updates.

Now, when I go to Settings/Update&Security/Windows Update and then click on "Check for updates",
it only takes about 1 second before the following message appears:

"We couldn't connect to the update service. We'll try again later, or you can check now. If it still doesn't work, make sure you're connected to the Internet."

I never had this before.

So what could I do to still be able to receive Updates?

If you apply firewall rules, remove them and try to search for windows updates.
I will investigate on this issue.

Hello and thanks for the response!

Turning off the Windows Firewall helped.

Thank you, you are awesome!
