a. Open Terminal and run this command:

open $TMPDIR/../C

b. Locate and delete the folder called "com.apple.appstore"

c. Now, go to this folder and delete everything:

/Library/Updates/

d. Once done removing all these stuff, restart your Mac and empty the trash. Then run this command using Terminal:

defaults write com.apple.dock ResetLaunchPad -bool true; killall Dock

This should solve your issue. 🙂
