Windows 10 update jammed and won't reinstall

I have the problem aired in the national press in that a couple of recent updates keep failing. I tried every nostrum advised on the web. Dsim won't run cause of pending operations even though I used it to stop pending operstions. Update cache folder cleared out. SFC won't run. Trying to reinstall ends with windows 10 installation failed ( at a very late stage). Windows won't allow reinstall in safe mode...
The windows installation is from Windows 7 when it was free.
Every now and then on shut down and reboot it goes into the reconfiguring windows routine so clearly there is a pending operation which can't complete or get out if the way. More an annoyance than anything crucial but I daren't try a full install in case that fails too!
Any ideas?

Edit: think this is the one
