Updates under Windows 10 always have problems. This could be a slow update or an update that doesn't download at all. Follow our tips if your update doesn't start.
Wait and check the connection
Before you take any further steps, you should first wait . Sometimes the update takes a little longer before progress is actually shown. If the update is still at 0% after a while, you also need to check the internet connection. If your computer is currently not connected to the Internet , you will of course not be able to download a Windows update.
It is also possible that the update itself contains an error . Usually Microsoft makes an improved version available a short time later..
Restart the computer
