    Restart Your PC to Finish Installing Updates

    According to the Get Windows 10 app, the download is in progress. When I click view download progress, it takes my to the windows update window where it says "restart your PC to finish installing updates". My computer restarts quickly but then nothing
    happens. It just puts me right where I was before, still running windows 8.1.
