Hello,
I have a custom Win 10 professional computer
I left it off for a year, and am now trying to update it. I have encountered the “Potential Windows update database error detected”. After multiple update trouble shooter runs and reboots, I have got all but the 1803 feature update to install.
My OS is at Win 10 1703 build 16299.309.
After failing to install the 1803 update via the regular check for updates process, and several tries with the troubleshooter, I went trough the update database renaming process and was unable to rename the files because they were in use by remote desktop. I then uninstalled remote desktop and RD connection. That allowed the renaming of the two folders. The update trouble shooter was then able to repair the update database. Still, after several reboots and checks for updates, the Win 10 feature update 1803 has not installed. Another strange thing is Windows is selecting "Feature update to Windows 10, version 1803 amd64 2019-03" for my Intel I7 CPU based computer.
My questions are why am I being offered the amd update, and how can I get the correct 1803 update to install?
