Microsoft has stopped releasing new version of Windows with the release of the Windows 10.
Its new policy consists of regularly publishing updates of Windows 10.
So you will only get the new features, patches, security updates only through the Windows Update service.
These bring improvements in performance, stability and new functions.
In most cases, the installation of updates is a simple and automatic process.
However, some users have problems updating their systems.
Occasionally,downloading and installation are stuck.
Other times the process is incomplete or fails completely.
This problem can be very annoying.
So now lets see how to fix it.
yo follow the following steps one by one.
Sometimes the download and installation process is really slow.
So to see if the update is stuck, start the update process.
Give it a couple of hours until you are sure the process is not successful.
If the problem persists, just proceed to the next solution.

Once the installation is done, reconnect it.
Driver errors
Some updates are incompatible with the drivers we have installed in the system.
The ideal situation is to have all drivers updated.
This is usually done automatically through Windows Update.
However, you could give a shot to do it manually by opening the unit manager.
Once there, go for the machine and have a go at update it manually.
After the process is finished, reconnect the devices.
The solution is to uninstall the problematic tool while we apply the update.
