    downloading updates


    For some reason every time i try to download and install new apps from the beta store or download general updates from windows update it just seems to hang up and get stuck at downloading updates or installing.

    My Windows Updates were hung up also when downloading. I stopped Windows Update in Services then removed Windows/SoftwareDistribution folder then opened Windows Update in settings and it started working again. Had a few that failed to install but they downloaded again and finally all worked.
