0x8DDD0018 error, Yet Required Services ARE Enabled

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

The error states:

Windows Update cannot continue because a required service application is
disabled. Windows Update requires the following services:
Automatic Updates enables detection, downloading, and installation of
critical updates for your computer.
Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) enables faster, restartable
downloading of updates.
Event Log logs Windows Update events for troubleshooting.

All three of these services are showing as "Started". I have been using
Update without problems before, and this is new today. Any ideas?
