I can't update and have been trying for months!

I've already asked this question and have never gotten an answer. I even provided the archive files that were asked for earlier this month. For heaven sakes, if you can't tell me how to update to the newest version of windows AT LEAST tell me how to stop Windows from trying to update. Every time it does that I have to wait hours and the update eventually fails and rolls back, and meanwhile I can't use my computer and anything I haven't saved gets lost. Here is my previous thread, and the links to the archive files are on it.

Answer
If you have installed any programs that you got by using your browser then they are downloaded into the Download folder in File Explorer.  When you do a clean install all of these programs are removed as well as the Download folder.
