    I am getting this message on the dashboard but have no idea how to fix this:

    Background updates ensure that WordPress can auto-update if a security update is released for the version you are currently using.

    • Error The WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE constant is defined as 'false'
    • Error All automatic updates are disabled.

    Can you please help?

    The definition could be in any number of places. Most commonly it is by code added to wp-config.php. If you find the definition code there, you can either delete it, or make it into a comment by adding // to the head of the line.

    If it’s not there, it’s likely withing your theme or one of your plugins. Try swapping themes and deactivating plugins to isolate the responsible module. Alternately, search the entire installation for WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE using a recursive full text search utility such as grep or findstr (requires terminal or command prompt access).
