    Try, to clear the update cache, the update cache is consists of the update installation files. The operating system uses them if user even forced to reapply the update. It saves downloading them again. However, it is a good idea but they take up a lot of space.

    Follow the steps to do so:

    • In the first step, it is required tom stop the Windows Update service. And then search for services and right-click on the top result and then open it as an administrator.
    • After this, scroll down the list of entries until you find Windows Update and then right-click on it and choose Stop.
    • You will now need to delete the files and then press Windows key + R in order to open the run box. Now type C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\ and hit Enter.
    • After these, you can now delete everything within the Downloads folder.
    • Last but not the least, you will need to head back to services and then re-enable Windows Update.
