Does it depend what browser you are using? Mine didn't work for a while but then came back in time for Christmas! I'm using Chrome.

When you get failed updates restart and try again. It really does work!

Yes 60 are too many for it to cope with, some need to fully install before others are accepted. It may take several attempts!

One of the better things about Windows 10 is that it's pretty good at sorting itself out and correcting errors, given time. Of course you may not always like the way it does it, but at least on the Pro version you can change back the settings after it has restored the defaults. Not sure if the Home edition is quite so accommodating  :-\

When I first upgraded I was disappointed with the quality of the display, but within an hour or so it had downloaded new drivers for the video card and everything was back to the way it had been on Windows 7  :)
