Couldn't connect to the update service

Hi,

Hope everything is going well.

1,We can run the Windows update troubleshooter to see if it fixes the issue:

Select Start > Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Other troubleshooters. Next, under Most Frequent, select Windows Update > Run.

2,Make sure that you’re connected to the Internet. If VPN is connected, turn off to have a try.

3,Check if the Windows Update service is disabled.

4,You can also reset the Windows Update Agent in below article on your Windows 11 computer to have a try.

Refer to: Windows Update - additional resources
