Re: BITS stopped, cannot download updates
Hi Daisy,

Run services.msc from the start/search line. Locate the BITS (background
intelligence) service and double click it. Start the service if necessary.
On the general tab, make sure startup type is set to automatic. On the
Recovery tab, set the first failure line to restart the service. Click
apply/ok.
