Update problems
the info is as follows: 2017-10 cumulative update for windows 10 version 1703 for x64 based systems KB4041676 started downloading and is hung on 23%. I can't find anyway to refresh it or make it re-start. What else can I do?

Send the contents of your septic tank to Bill Gates.

I have no help to actually give, just moral support because Windows 10 does not like me, or NeoGoliath, or MobileGoliath, and updating both machines is hit or miss. Sometimes it freezes up, sometimes it blue screens (that frowny face does not make it better) and occasionally it goes off without a hitch. That little update bubble gives me mild anxiety.

Out of the things I don't miss from when I was working, I'd say Windows Update probably tops the list. Once-upon-a-time it actually worked well. They broke it, near as I could tell, about the time they started trying to "persuade" users to move to Vista. It's been broken ever since.
