Windows 10: Unable to update to Windows 10 Version 1803

For the past few months I have been trying to install windows 10 version 1803 to no avail. I have tried SFC and DISM and nothing. I tied to D/L it manually and use the media creation tool. all I got was a lengthy log file which for some reason when I go to post it here crashes the post creation. There are several failures in the log but it all seems to start early here:

Session: 30678570_1062738047 initialized by client WindowsUpdateAgent, external staging directory: (null), external registry directory: (null

Failed to internally open package. [HRESULT = 0x800f0805 - CBS_E_INVALID_PACKAGE]

Failed to create open package. [HRESULT = 0x800f0805 - CBS_E_INVALID_PACKAGE]

Failed to OpenPackage using worker session [HRESULT = 0x800f0805]

and then it goes on. Any ideas on how to make it so I can update my pc but not loose all that i have on it?

:)

Next Major Windows 10 Update Named "Spring Creators Update"

The next Windows 10 service pack major update has been named "Spring Creators Update." Windows Insider Program users toying with Build 17618 of the operating system spotted a listing of all the major updates of Windows 10 known to the build, when running "Get-VMHostSupportedVersion" in Power Shell. The last entry reads "Microsoft Windows 10 Spring Creators Update 1803." The version number (1803 in this case), often coincides with the public release date of the update. The Fall Creators Update 1709, released in 2017-09 (September) to Insiders. Going by that convenion, Spring Creators Update could see a "branded" Insider preview build this month, 2018-03 (March), with a public release usually 3-4 weeks after, presumably before Summer kicks in.
