How to fix Hotkey Utility issues on Windows 10

Method 1: Run the Windows Update Troubleshooter

Maybe Windows Update indeed offers a solution, but it’s somehow damaged or it has certain problems to deliver updates to your computer. In order to make sure that Windows Update is working properly, we’re going to run a Windows Update Troubleshooter and see if it finds any issues. Microsoft created automated troubleshooter for Windows Updates as a part of the Fix It tool. You just need to download it from here, run it and let the wizard do all the work for you. You can also run Windows Update troubleshooter on your own. Go to Search> type troubleshooter and open Find and fix problems> under System and Security click on Fix problems with Windows Update. UPDATE: Microsoft’s Fix It tool is no longer available for download. The company no longer supports it.

Method 2: Update your computer
