I am running an HP with Window 7 Home Premium and haven't updated in a good 8 months. I recently tried to update and I kept getting errors. ''Windows Update Service Not Running''... So I had tried to troubleshoot windows updates for any problems. After
completion, it said that "Windows Updates Components Need to be Reparied'' so I went online and found a ''Fix it''... I clicked Run Now, it went for a few minutes then stopped working. I tried again and it poped up the same error message. Is there anyway
I can fix Windows Updates so it does run properly without redoing my whole pc?

Also, I went into the service folder in Administrator tools, cause I was still looking online for solutions to get updates working. 'Background Intelligent Transer Service'': says STATUS- started, STARTUP TYPE- Automatic (Delayed start)
'Windows Update'': says STATUS- blank, STARTUP TYPE- Automatic

I had tried to click windows update and fix the settings to start, and popped up an error: ''Windows could not start Windows Update service on Local Computer. Error 0x80073b01: 0x80073b01''

How to fix this ??
~Thank you in advance.
