If updates won't install, you get an error message, or your Surface freezes while its updating, here are a few things to try.

Downloading & Installing Microsoft Office for Free Updated Sep 23, 2020 Students and employees of BYU-Idaho can download for free either one copy of Office 2019 or multiple copies of Office 365 to various personal devices.
The Software may periodically check for updates, and download and install them for you. You may obtain updates only from Microsoft or authorized sources. Microsoft may need to update your system to provide you with updates.

Note: To learn how to install updates manually, see Install Surface and Windows updates.

There were some problems installing updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help: (0x80240fff. I have been trying this for 2 weeks and get 'Microsoft is having technical problems'. My best recommendation for bypassing this problem is to download and install the Spring Creators Update (1804) through the Windows 10 Upgrade Assistant once it is released to the public (Windows Update might not work because it will still get stuck on that KB4056892 detection loop).

Run the Windows Update troubleshooter

If you’re having trouble installing an update, try running the Windows Update automatic troubleshooter, which can fix some common update problems:

Select Start > Settings > Update & Security .
On the left side, select Troubleshoot .
Under Get up and running, select Windows Update .
- If you don't see 'Get up and running' on the Troubleshoot settings page, go to Additional troubleshooters and you should find it.
Select Run the troubleshooter.

Check your date and time settings

If your date and time settings aren’t correct, you may see Windows Update error 80072F8F when checking for updates, or updates may not install correctly.

Charge your battery

Note: This section doesn’t apply to Surface Studio (it doesn’t have a battery).

Make sure your battery is charged to at least 40 percent before trying to install updates.

If you see Windows Update error 8024004C, or if your Surface battery won’t charge above 40 percent, remove and reinstall the battery driver. Here’s how:

Plug in your Surface.
Select the search box in the taskbar, enter device manager, and in the search results, select Device Manager.
Select the arrow next to the Batteries category.
Double-click Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery, and under the Driver tab, select Uninstall > OK.
Go to Start , and select Power > Restart.
Restarting will reinstall the driver for you.

If the battery charges above 40 percent after you reinstall the driver, try installing updates again.

If your battery still won’t charge above 40 percent, your Surface might need service. Go to Surface troubleshooting and support for more info.

Note: For more info on Surface batteries and power, see Surface battery and power.

Restart your Surface

Warning: Interrupting updates while they’re in progress could damage your Surface. If an update seems to be stalled and your Surface doesn’t restart automatically, wait at least 20 minutes before trying to restart your Surface yourself.

If you’re seeing any of these errors, restarting your Surface might fix the problem:

Update stays on 'Getting Devices Ready...' screen for more than 20 minutes
Update stays on 'Please wait while we install a system update' screen for more than 20 minutes

If you get one of these errors, try each of the restart solutions below, in the order listed.

After your Surface restarts, try installing updates again. If you’re still having a problem, try Solution 2.
