As pointed out it is a very old release from 2017.

You may have to clean install to get the latest currently available although you won't be registered with the extended support from October 2025.

Go to https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 and try the option Update now to 2022 for 22H2. It may fail and you will be required to clean install windows.

You may have hardware constraints stopping the update. Like a small internal drive without enough free space. (for example)

Hello, Thomas.

1709 is a very old build and modern updates cannot be installed on it due to incompatibility with the outdated build. Additionally, the source of the problem may be the revision of the OS itself. To clarify, post a screenshot of the command window here:
