Dear rick31,
You can try this open BitDefender, switch to advanced view,go to firewall section,rules,press on the add button now browse to the windows,system 32 folder and select wuauclt.exe press on open and allow connection. Do the same thing(create a new rule) for wupdmgr.exe and allow it also. I can't give an explanation why BitDefender firewall on some computers blocks windows update.
Kind regards,
