Hi Guys
I've searched the forum and not been able to answer this problem, so I hope it's okay to create another thread.
Old Samsung N130 Netbook, using 2gb ram. Running Windows 10 via the "free" Windows 10 rollout.
There are two windows updates waiting to be installed, but the install fails every time.
Here's what I've tried so far;
1) Run the troubleshooter programme as admin
2) Started in several different versions of safe mode
3) Run sfc /scannow as admin
4) Tried to manually delete the windows/software/downloads (might have the directory wrong, but you'll know what I mean)
I have also got the media creation tool ready to reinstall keeping my files, but I'm a little bit reluctant to try that just yet.
There is a minor secondary issue, which is worth mentioning that I've had a lot of the MS apps crashing and showing up in the event viewer. So, deleted them. The log stated they have failed due to the try version expiring. It's those ones that come with Win 10.
I'm not with the laptop at the moment, if necessary I can edit this post with the update numbers.
Thanks for reading.
