Windows 10 Update stuck in Initializing Status - [Internal – Corpnet Required]

When having problems with Windows Update, here are a few possible actions:

  • Run PC Settings, Update & Security, Troubleshoot, and choose Windows Update

  • Run Microsoft's Windows Update Troubleshooter

  • sfc /scannow - check Windows integrity.

  • After resetting Windows Update as in the first point above, rename C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download as explained in this answer and reboot. If this doesn't help, redo again but rename instead C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution and reboot.
