I have a laptop that's suffered from that for a while now, so it's not just one update but a trend. Tried a number of things from clearing space to even a manual download on a USB to force it. It always reverts back to churning away trying to complete the update, restarting, and then reversing it. The irony is the laptop works fine until it comes time for it to check again, then repeat ad nauseam.

Yes. Throw out all electronic devices and go live as a shepherd.

I tried that, but it's just way too much effort to get Internet Explorer running on Wine.
