When updating to 1511 (10586) the system stops at 25% in the circle and 86% Files has done it twice now. any ideas.

There are a few things that can result in seeing an upgrade install fail. Are you upgrading from a previous version by chance? since that sounds like the Threshold 2 update you are trying to use there. You might want to consider skipping the upgrade part entirely and go for a nice clean install of 10 to bypass all the potential headaches that can appear!

The method preserves the previous version's activation status while still allowing you to put a nice fresh copy of 10 on without any mishaps! Upgrade installs can often come up buggy! Plus a look at the other Clean Install guide provides cautions like seeing any second and third storage drives unplugged so the boot files and temp install folders are unpacked onto the intended C drive. When first going to download 10 last summer I ran into that need fast when 10 would not go on in any form having the second OS drive as well as two storage/backup drives needing to be unplugged. Disabling any av software, firewall, other system protections can also be a help.
