It appears to be the so called anniversary upgrade. I found a thread on this subject that I'll look into this morning.

The safest approach for the anniversary upgrade- which is as is widely reported- giving significant problems to some users- is
a. to create a full disk image of your existing system (e.g. Macrium Reflect (free) )
b. download and create a bootable medium for the upgrade
c. do the update manually rather than letting it simply download
A number report the update doesn't complete and rolls back, so if you download it once like that, you can retry without downloading it again.

If you have Pro (e.g.) you can defer the upgrade in Settings.. otherwise you should block updates.
See Tutorial section for more on that e.g.
