Mine keeps wanting to update but cannot complete.
Driving me crazy.
My CPU fan went out two years ago so now it won’t restart
without pressing f1. otherwise computer works just fine.

1. Replace the fan, or check the bios for “halt on all errors”, and change it to maybe “keyboard only”.

2. Update problems. Use the Win10 troubleshooter on “update problems”. It’s worked for me in the past. Previously, I went mucking around in “Windows” dir for the subdir with the update download, and deleted the contents. That worked as well. Don’t remember the name, but if you do a search by date after the update fails, it narrows down the obvious name.
