Automatic Update service change to disable and stop automatically

I don't know why Window Automatic Update service kept changing to
'Disable' in startup type and stopped running. As soon as I changed it
to 'Automatic' for startup type and "Started" status. It stayed there
for about couple minutes and automatic changed to startup type
'Disable' and stopped. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
