Hi John,
I would recommend either the Media Creation Tool or the Upgrade assistant.
You can download either using this link on the Microsoft website:-
https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10
The first download button you will encounter is "Update now", this is for the
Upgrade Assistant. The second is the Media Creation Tool, text "Download tool
now". Once you have downloaded one of the tools, run it to start the process
where you will go through a few prompts before the install will begin.
You might want to ask someone to help you because part of the installation
takes place "outside" Windows and with these things it's a good thing to know
everything that is happening. You won't be prompted for anything during that
phase as the installation should proceed normally with periodic restarts, it's
for a "just in case" scenario - touch wood.
Remember to make all the usual backups beforehand, creating a system image is
also recommended.
Cheers
Martin

Hi John,
Are you saying that you cannot get Windows Update to work and you already
have the Anniversary Update?
Or do you mean that you have yet to download the Anniversary Update but it is
yet to show in Windows Update?
Cheers
Martin

Hi Alistair,
One way to check your version of Windows is to select the start button,
type 'winver' without quotes and hit enter. 'Winver' stands for Windows
Version, just so you know.
A dialog box will appear confirming the version, build, year of build and
copyright text. It should confirm that it is Windows 10. Click OK to exit
the dialog.
Cortana is available from the keyboard by clicking the start button and
typing or by saying "Hey Cortana" with a microphone. If there is no sign of
it, try the following link for more info on how to turn it on:-
