    this finally fixed it after hours of failure. I got the October update and it took 3 hours, but now all is OK

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

    I could not previously download and install the update, but this link worked immediately... well 3 hours to do, but DONE!!!

    many people do the suggested fix and the system gives a reply that it cannot do the function. I am very astute at fixing computers and have tried every fix. For some it will not work. This is Microsoft's creation when they did the April/May 2018 update and they have no patch which they should create for users with this issue. I have backed up all files and will buy MS 10 Pro CD and activation code for $50 from Ebay.. Less of a cost than Geeksquad or computer repair place that will cost over $100 to fix a $200 computer. My computer will not even let me install the downloadable Window updates or anything from MS website. Any tech person who thinks that they have a solution, has not dealt with the issue that many are having and is wasting our time with suggestions.

    You are very astute at fixing computers but can't use Google for a free Win 10 download and wasted $50? LOL Remind me never to use your services.
