Windows update stuck 99% and eats disc space.

[Martin9744]

Hello. This update http://prntscr.com/hrv0vd is stuck at 99%.

It is creating a file in C:/Windows/Logs/CBS that keeps growing. It was previously 70GB, but I had to cancel the windows update process in task manager so I could delete the CBS file. Now I started it again and the updater created a new CBS file that keeps growing and the update is forever stuck at 99%.
