how do I fix it so I can update my windows
I've tried this solution, as well as all the others provided, and none would work for me. What I ended up doing was going to Microsoft, downloading the Windows 10 files to do a new install, and creating a DVD to reinstall Windows 10.
The beauty of this procedure is that, with Windows 10, you don't have thirty or forty updates to do, after a new install, like with previous versions of Windows.
Now that I have a DVD with the Windows 10 media for a complete install, I'll do the same if I start experiencing update issues, again.
Many thanks. I'll try that nd let you know if it works for me.

My service registration is missing or corrupted. I keep signing in and I am recognised .....then I am asked to sign in again and it doesn't like my sign in or pass word. One drive is on a tile on the start page with a file around the symbol within the tile which does not look right and I have 2 Notebooks which are clashing, one of which must be from the original purchase of Office Home and Student 2013. I cannot get rid of the first Notebook at all....Control Panel and Uninstall are sick of seeing me remove and reinstall all the time. I am out of my depth now and my Surface Pro seems to be running slow. I really don't think that I am actually receiving updates either.....please help? I sent an email to OneDrive for help and it did not register through properly ....I am really stuck now?
