I just installed a 500GB hard drive fro Seagate onto a Toshiba Satellite L675 laptop. Everything looked fine, until I tried to run windows update. It never works. "Gives me a message Windows Update cannot currently check for updates the service is not running" or at least it did until recently, when it stopped doing that and just still didnt work. I tried downloading something called IRRT driver. That didn't work. Update windows defender. That didnt work. Now I have no idea what to do. Any help?
 
Usually when windows update can't check for updates it gives an error code along with the message.

Do you happen to get one? If so, what is it?
 
Open the Services window and make sure the Windows Update and BITS (Background Intelligent Transfer Service) services are running. Try restarting them as well.

Also, make sure your time / date are correct.
