Hello All,
I faithfully update my computer to assure that I am running the current version of Windows 10.
When I attempted to update Windows 10 version 1709 to version 1803, Windows Update advised me that I needed to restart my laptop to complete the process.
I restarted numerous times, sometimes rebooting and sometimes shutting the machine down before restarting. Whatever I did, the updater displayed the same message; I needed to reboot before the update could be completed.
Since restarting accomplished nothing, I tried a different approach. I went to
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
and clicked on the button, Download Tool Now
That action downloaded and ran MediaCreationTool1803.exe
After a lengthy process with many restarts, the Media Creation Tool successfully upgraded my operating system to Windows 10 Version 1803. (without the advisory that I needed to restart my computer to complete the process.)

Hi Ralph,
Ironically, I had the same problem with Update # 1709, which was corrected by #1803. Number 1709 failed to install repeatedly and actually never did. Update # 1803 installed the first time and subsequent updates have gone without a hitch.
