Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 for x64-based Systems (KB3135173) Waiting for download The Windows Update Troubleshooter says “Troubleshooting couldn’t identify the problem” Did MS pull the update and not tell anyone? http://www.tenforums.com/windows-10-news/40282-cumulative-update-windows-10-version-1511-kb3135173.html As always check the download with your a/v. I’ve used these direct download links in the past and have had no problems with them. Note, the downloads can be largish in size. For Firefox check this link https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/refresh-firefox-reset-add-ons-and-settings For Chrome check this link https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/3296214?hl=en For Microsoft Edge check this link http://www.howtogeek.com/237527/how-to-reset-microsoft-edge-in-windows-10/ In relation Microsoft Edge I would be careful in using powershell scripts as they can mess things up. Whatever you do create a system restore point first. If you don’t use edge skip the information from the link provided. If worse comes to worse you may have to re-upgrade your pc/laptop. I’ve gone through this procedure and it’s pretty much a clean re-install by using the Microsoft Media creation tool. What it boils down to is upgrading an upgrade which, I know, sounds a bit silly. This re-upgrade method fixed problems with Store Apps on my laptop, which could not be fixed in any other way! However, it does take some considerable time to complete. Good luck!
