I am trying to find out how to delete the windows 10 update that keeps failing on my computer and in the process is taking up much of my hard drive. Could someone please be kind enough to point me in the right direction or at least please let me know what is wrong with my question instead of just removing it so that I may correct what is wrong?

Do it before the update downloads.

Right click on the Windows Update and choose "hide update"

Use Disk Cleanup to delete the files on your computer.
Right click your C: (or whatever) drive and choose properties, then Disk Cleanup.
Click the Clean Up System Files button after Disk Cleanup has scanned your computer.
Check the Temporary Windows Installation files and then run the cleanup and it should be gone.
 


 
Unfortunately when I right click on windows 10 update it does not give me the option to hide update. It only gives me the two options of either view details or copy details. I have been doing what you suggested to do in the latter part of your answer every day to help clear up the space on my hard drive. I can't find any way to delete this update.
