Really trying to figure this one out.
IDK where to look.Uninstall everything in the apps list except what you KNOW is needed for the application to work.
If the problem continues - kindly inform your boss that you are at an educational end, your searching of Google will likely not provide any further solutions, and instead be yourself spinning your wheels instead of you spending time in the company (online) lab learning new better ways to help the company earn money by fixing other problems faster.
The fastest way to likely fix this machine is to rebuild it. if the problem continues after that, it's likely either a sabotaging client or bad hardware.
-
All that said - it likely is some crazy setting in some piece of software that got flipped, that if found, could/would solve the issue.
The problem is you don't know where to look for it. You're not a developer, so likely you have no way to enabling logs for all of the software running on the machine to see if that software is causing the issue or not, etc, etc, etc...

i've never seen a windows update as a program .
I now know that it's safe and is there to upgrade the system more quickly if we say for it to do so. -

Usually when you download an individual update and install from what I've seen.

@WrCombs The amount of time (read: money) spent on trying to fix this isn't worth it anymore. I am guessing a new computer could have been paid for shortly.
I seriously doubt it. Clearly there is nothing more pressing for @WrCombs to work on, otherwise the boss would have him move on - or drive out and fix it it right.
It's also likely that the customer is paying a monthly support fee, not an hourly one, otherwise the customer might complain about a $1000 bill to 'fix' a computer compared to wipe and reload.
Someone is paying him to do this. Since it is a maintenance contract, I am surprised that his boss hasn't intervened enough to resolve it.

So we use Microsoft visual C++ 2005,2008,2010,2012 Redistributable.
We have 4 of each in the programs and features -

We have 4 of each in the programs and features4 of each? Usually, you would have x64 and x86.

Boss told me to keep looking at it.
Its rebooting after hours so it's not "an emergency" im just tired of seeing it. -

@WrCombs are all those multiple versions required? I thought a new one would supercede the last one.
