My Windows Update keeps telling me that I have 5 (put your random number here) important updates to install. However, when I click on them, the list that pops up is empty. I can still install the updates, but I cannot see and of course also not decide which updates are going to be installed.

I have found that Microsoft Support are very good at these type of problems which go to the core of their operating system. I would email them, or even phone them if they supply a freephone number for your area.

I have to admit that such calls go one of two ways, you are either stunned how easy and efficient they are, or it's a nightmare of holding redirecting, in which case I would just hang up.

Thank you. Not the answer I expected, but helpful, too ;) I'll report back. – Franz Nov 11 at 22:41
I would vote you up, if I could ;) – Franz Nov 11 at 22:56
What in the world? They don't even accept my product ID! Probably because it's OEM and you can forget the support at the computer manufacturer... – Franz Nov 11 at 22:57

I have the same problem. No updates is shown in the list. Did you find a solution?
