Hello, I did end up having to completely reset my watch to get it to work. I took off everything I could find including all the watch faces except the one I was using. Once I did the reset it let me start the update. It is in the middle of it right now and is at 44% complete. It is taking forever this time for some reason. I hope all this frustration is worth it. LOL.
