Boot Camp 6 update for Windows 10 not installing

I have a Macbook Pro w/ Retina Display (the first one - can't remember the year) and it has Windows 10 installed. When I open Apple Software Update in W10, it shows I have the Boot Camp 6 Update for Windows available to install. I select it and click the "install 1 item" button... it seems to run, then asks me to reboot. However, after my mac reboots (into W10), when I open the Apple Software Update, the BC6 update is still there.

Any help with this would be appreciated.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.5)

You may the issue with one of the updates hanging in the background, which doe into complete properly.

On the OS X side, run BCA, and download BC6 drivers to a USB using

Switch to Windows, and run setup.exe from the USB. If it completes successfully, try the Apple Software Update, which should return without any further updates.
