If you have tried, all of the above suggestions and nothing has worked like in my situation. This is how to fix the problem.

SOLUTION
As you can't update via the settings app, follow these instructions.

1. Hold Windows key & press R
Type in winver (this will show you your windows version)
Mine was (Version 1809 OS Build 17763.253)
2. Check if there is a higher update available e.g (Version 1809 OS Build 17763.292)
You can do this here HTML Code:

3. Click on the KB article that is relevant to you.



4. Scroll to the bottom and download the standalone update by clicking on Microsoft Update Catalog.



5. Download the correct system architecture.




Install and this should resolve your problems - if it does (CREATE A NEW SYSTEM RESTORE POINT)

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
