Windows 10: Windows 10, March 2021 update

Hello!

My laptop started to freeze every 5 minutes and I cannot do anything but to force a restart.. I can't move the mouse or use ctrl+alt+del at all.
I tried to look online for a fix, but the only error I found was because of the printer.. I don't have a printer and I never used one for my laptop...
What can I do, because it's very frustrating!


Thank you!

:)

windows 10 updates-March 2018

I have March updates that will not install. The automatic updates for 2018-03 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 version 1709 for x64 based system (March KB4088776) were activated and downloaded to my computer, but they will not install on shutdown/restart.
When I check for updates, it shows that the updates are downloaded, but when I click to uninstall, there is not a date for installation. I have researched the Windows suggestions for this problem. They tell me to remove the January 2018 updates (January
KB4056892) and then reinstall the March update. When I attempted to uninstall the January update, I could see the update listed in the check for downloads screen, but when I click uninstall, the January update has a different reference number. Please advise.
I have talked to my technology department and they can't determine next steps either. VERY FRUSTRATING. I need my computer for work.
