Here is a CURE of this disease---- Real issue is outdated CONEXANT audio driver, check your pc if you have installed it, UNINSTALL IT, it get installed with Sennheiser headphone software or may be other audio driver would have installed it.

If you use Sennheiser headphones then uninstall its driver software and then restart and open update and wait it will install everything, make sure you have not connected any other device except wired mouse, keyboard and monitor. I AM SURE REMOVING SENNHEISER DRIVERS WILL HELP 100%. After update you can reinstall those drivers. Hope I helped you. If you don't use Sennheiser then uninstall any headphone or external audio driver and only hit and try will help. It's just driver issue. Thank me later. Ask me again if you can't fix it

    My laptop was  stuck  at  61%  and  refused  to  install the  latest  Windows 10 update. My  son  couldn't figure  it  out, either. That  should've warned  me  to  leave  it  alone.    Well, I got  frisky, went  online  and  tried  some  tips  that  I  read  here. I   messed  up  my  (old) laptop so  bad  that  I  had  to  take  it  to  Micro  Center  here  in  KC  and  get  it  worked  on.  Fortunately  they  were  able  to  get  it  going  again and  got  it  to  update, and    so  far  it  is  updating at  home  just  fine. That's  the  last  time   this   Senior  lady  will   ever  try  to  work  on  her computer  by  herself!

    I had the same issue
    I tried several times to use Paloma's link, and it gets to 99% and sticks - as if it can't initiate the last bit, whatever it is
    It has been on 99% for about 36 hours now
