Upgrade from 1809 to 1903 seems to be in a loop
I decided today to install the 1903 upgrade from 1809.
At first all went well, preparation seemed normal and then the download started which went along smoothly until it got to 99%. The download has been sitting on 99% for hours.
If I check Task Manager and Resource Monitor, Windows Update is using around 30% of the CPU. Nothing much else is happening. The Disk will show some activity, but not much and the Network also shows some occasional activity but neither are what I would expect during a download.
The download speed of the Internet connection is around 40Mbps, which is good. Neither the computer nor the Router is being used for anything else during this upgrade so the upgrade has access to 100% of the resources.
Any thoughts...? Should I just be patient...? How long will this take...? I am not in a hurry but this is not the behavior that I have experienced in the past with feature updates.

Update to previous post.....
After 5 hours of doing not much Windows now reports the following error....
"Windows 10, version 1903 - Error 0x80070002"
After Googling for an answer I am no further. This machine has plenty of RAM (8GB), the Windows partition has almost 200GB of free disk space; the Internet connection (Ethernet) is stable and reasonably fast at 40Mbps. A scan of the hardware components indicates no problems.
Any suggestions....?
