Can't Install Windows 10 Update 1709, Infinite "Initializing..." (Error 80080008)

[MrPandaPasta]

I am having trouble updating my PC. When I click "Check for Updates" it detects 3 updates; One for a Cumulative Update, one for Adobe Flash, and another for Feature Upeate 1709. On one attempt, I got Error 80080008. For all of my other attempts, I've just been stuck with an infinite "Initializing...".

Things I've tried:

- Restart Windows Update service

- Renaming folders associated with Windows Update

- The "dism.exe" command in cmd, I forget the rest of the command but one time I got an error, my other attempts trying I got stuck at a percentage

- Installing the update in "Diagnostic Mode"

Any other suggestions besides what I've already tried would be great!

Thanks in advance.

Suggestions?
Be patient!

My system finally grabbed the Fall update, and it took about an hour.
And then was 'stuck' at xx% for quite a while.

Let it run.

I kept getting error 0x800704c7.

Command prompt (run as admin). Type sfc /scannow.

It found 0 errors when I ran it, but the update worked afterwards. But seriously fk this update. Read my newest post.

Sorry I forgot to update this post. I ended up downloading "Windows Upgrade Assisstant" from Microsoft and it downloaded with no problem. It did take a few hours though.
