I have gone through this same issue on mine MSE as well and I would like to advise you the following steps and so that you can solve your issue. Make sure that you have turned off the third party antivirus. During the time of update you need to make the all other antivirus as turn off and after that you can update your any program because most of the time third party antiviruses are crash with this installation. Finally I would like to suggest you to disable the antivirus and after that make update.
