Hey guys!
So I have been having problems lately :/ Since the new update came out: '2019-03 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1809 for x64-based Systems (KB4489899)', I can't download it, it says 'Updates failed. There were problems installing some updates, but we'll try again later. Error 0x800f0982' Not only this, but my PC can't boot up normally. When I press the ON button, there is a black screen and I have to press the restart button to boot the system normally (this happens only since this error). Any help would do :) thank you and have a nice day! :)
