About

Update Fixer is a lightweight, freeware app to automatically fix Windows Update. This program is an automatic Windows Update Fixer, but we couldn’t actually use that name, because Windows is Microsoft’s trademark and obviously we are not Microsoft. Therefore, our program is called Update Fixer. It’s a free Windows Update fixing tool. Update Fixer is a lightweight, no-nonsense program that does only one thing, but it does it very well: It fixes Windows Update. Nothing more, nothing less. Key Features 1) Automatically detects what is wrong with Windows Update. 2) Automatically fixes any found Windows Update related problems. 3) If you want, you can choose exactly what fixing operations should be done. Supports Dark Mode. 4) Very easy to use: Start the app, click a button. That’s it! 5) The user interface includes cats 🐱 6) Free and open source. Lightweight. No ads, no bundled software, no nonsense.

About

Updatest is a native macOS application designed to be your central hub for managing and installing updates for apps on a Mac by scanning each installed application to find supported update sources such as Homebrew, Mac App Store, Sparkle, Electron, and GitHub Releases, and aggregating available updates without relying on a database. It automatically detects update sources using an app’s internal metadata and presents available updates in a visual interface that lets users discover, select, and install updates in bulk or individually, giving users control over which updates to apply and which to skip. Updatest brings clarity to managing updates by integrating with Homebrew’s adoption feature, allowing users to adopt apps into Homebrew casks so they can benefit from Homebrew’s update ecosystem. It provides deep insights into each app, including version numbers, bundle identifiers, file sizes, direct download URLs where available.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I was really hoping this app could fix a Windows 10 system which has refused to update since it was new. I'm a software engineer, and I have at least 100 hours into fixing this dysfunctionality over more than 5 years. Microsoft ought to produce such a tool, because they can put their hands on anything and everything they ought to need to repair their fragile update wares.

Cons

  • The first time I ran the tool, I believe it found 3 "recommended fixes" and 8 "optional fixes." You then click a "Fix Windows Update" button; and the machine is busy for awhile. Then it asks you to reboot the machine. When the machine reboots, a command window opens with a message that it's busy fixing the machine... everything is alright... the window will automatically close when it's finished. There's no failure error messages. It informs you, "This will take a few minutes." There's no progress indicator mechanism at all. Anyway, two-and-a-half hours later, the window still hadn't closed. Figuring the process must have crashed or run into a forbidding obstruction. I have run it several times since. It now finds 2 recommended fixes and 9 optional. I have selected all every try; with the same result each time.
