Can't update AT ALL, manually or automatically.

Don't install it. Check your registry for windowsupdatedisable or another string that is restricting windows update. That article is to show you where to look.

Not finding "windowsupdatedisable" in registry. All I find in registry under windows update is (Default) REG_SZ (value not set.)

You might not find that exact value. There are a few values that can prevent Windows Update from running.

What are your values in "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpd ate"

I have seen this issue at work, it's either the Store or a Registry value preventing the Updates from displaying.
