Windows 10: Same update showing available despite having installed it already

Never had this before
I go to update to latest build. It tells me to install it. It installs. But when I come back to the update after the reboot it still says update available and asks me to install again. I have installed it twice and same thing keeps happening

:)

 

no get windows 10 app

I am on a windows 8.1 tablet with updates on, no available updates to install and no get windows 10 app Tried the troubleshooter from windows 10 FAQ's and it said I didn't have KB2976978 installed and provided a link to download, which I did, but in trying
to install it told me it was already installed. So I went to windows update, and uninstalled this update, then re-installed using the downloaded file and after restarts, still no windows 10 app. Re-ran the troubleshooter, and it still tells me the update
is not installed, despite windows update showing it installed, and going thru uninstall and reinstall.

Was hoping there may be another way to get the update, but with no regular USB for a flash drive and no DVD, not sure what options I have?

Anything else I should try?

Hi, there should be log files where you can try to find out what went wrong, should that be necessary.

There are basic recommendations here as to some precautions to take:
Upgrade to Windows 10 Windows 10 Installation Upgrade Tutorials
- disable or uninstall your AV, disconnect all unnecessary peripherals esp. wireless.

Check your PC: Some elementary checks (worthwhile doing occasionally)
1. Your disk: Download and run Hard Disk Sentinel (trial)
2. Your file system:

From an admin command prompt
[Windows key + X, click command prompt (admin)]
chkdsk C: /F
Your PC will need to restart.
Post back the result, which you can get after a restart as follows:
How do I see the results of a CHKDSK that ran on boot? - Ask Leo!
Make sure the result is clear or fixed- else do not proceed.

3. From an admin command prompt run
SFC /SCANNOW
and post the summary result.

Please post a screenshot of your partitions:
Windows key + X, click Disk Management
to post a screenshot please use the Insert Image icon above your post to the left of the video icon

Some people find it necessary to do an in-place upgrade repair install of their existing Windows version to be able to upgrade.

Some people find it helpful to manually upgrade: this is my preference as it's under my control.
a. Download the iso
b. Create Win 10 bootable medium
c. Create or update your disk image of your existing system (we strongly advise people use disk imaging so they can restore their system without technical help even if the disk fails or is encrypted with ransomware).
d. Attempt the upgrade.

Because the iso is downloaded once, multiple attempts are possible without repeating the download.
This also avoids difficulties with Windows update.
