Is this the major "feature" update like going from build 1803 to 1903? Many people are reporting issues with the feature update failing to this latest version. You can google it. Make sure there's enough space on the drive for the update (you'd probably want 10 GB or more free).
Frankly, with only 2GB of RAM I'm surprised it'll even run Win10. And 32bit? That must be painfully slow.
If that's all she uses it for, why not take it off the Internet, disable updates, and just keep using it as-is?
