Windows 10 won't update!

I've tried many different ways to fix my update problems and it hasn't helped. At this point, I'm thinking it will result in a clean wipe of the computer (which I have no idea how to really do). Anyways, my computer hasn't updated since before September.
The list of errors is so damn long and my troubleshooting skills aren't good to be begin with. Any help to a lost Windows 10 user would be great.

Here are the errors that pop up when I try to update:

Some update files are missing or have problems. We'll try to download the update again later.

Hi phant0m2017

Have you tried the update trouble shooter.

Start > Settings > Update and Security > Troubleshoot > Windows Update

You may also try Windows Update Reset. This likely delete your Update history seen under "View installed update history"

As with any change like this I recommend you create a Image with a tool like Macrium Reflect in case the unexpected happens.
