There are 49 Background processes running.

This is a loop corruption.....and a restart generally fixes that. Any updates that did make it through will be installed and the rest will be re-downloaded.
Everything should work, just run the reset script:
Use the Following tutorial to Reset Windows updates completely and check if it helps:

Make sure to run the script as an administrator

There's a Win10.1607 bug ...
Easy test: Fire up Windows Defender and Update it manually.
When I did that, the progress bar on Windows Update (WU) changed (both updates use the same engine)
That won't help the cumulative updates though, it was only to test if Defender was able to download virus defs independent of WU
Until the bug is fixed, toggle metered connection:
OFF to get updates
ON to prevent updates
Guru, Many thanks for your assistance.
What is metered please? From my question you will see how much I know.
Should I revert to a previous restore first?
This is most common for wireless:
Wireless Network Metered Connection - Set in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums
Did Defender definitions manual update work?
Have you run Reset Windows per Sumit Dhiman's suggestion?
Thank you all for assistance.
I d/l Reset Windows Updates and ran the .bat file.
So far downloading is still showing 0% after one hour. There is disc activity so presumably updates are large.
Will keep you informed.
Regards.
