An error occurred while installing the selected updates

I've tried upgrading to Catalina but each time it reaches 511MB it fails and i get this error message "An error occurred while installing the selected updates" what can i do? Wen i first got the update notification, i tried upgrading and I was told i don't have enough storage, so i cleared my storage and tried again then i started getting this error message each time it downloads and reaches 511MB. Any idea as what's causing it and how I can solve it? Thank you

I switched to a different network and I was able to pass the 511MB, it downloaded right to about 4.65GB and failed and showed network was lost. I tried re-downloading again and it started at 511MB. but then it can't get pass the 511MB because i've switched back to my old network. My question is, How can I delete the 511MB that has been downloaded so that I can start back from scratch?
