Upgrade from 18356.16 to 18362.1 fails
Oh dear, I'm sorry for offering the bad workaround. Even though currently my computer's doing fine, I fear it might not be after the next upgrade hearing from Chaeska who failed the rollback. Taking ownership of the WindowsApps folder might not be wise at all.
I think it's best to wait for the next build to finish and roll out. Microsoft has pulled 18362 from Windows Update due to so many failing the upgrade. Again, I feel responsible for this and I'm sorry Chaeska TheNerdBoy. I'll be editing my previous reply to advise more people from using the workaround.

Well, I was not offered any new update, neither have I seen any announcement about a new build.
In the meantime while we wait for it, let's have a competition about how many times this last build was installed :-) Below mine - with updates paused in the past few days:

Btw, I just read the announcement https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2019/03/20/announcing-windows-10-insider-preview-build-18362/ but I don't understand why they only mention the Slow ring - what about us who are on the Fast ring and we have upgrade issues?
UPDATE 4/2: We have released Build 18356.21 (KB4496796) to Windows Insiders in the Slow ring who are currently on Build 18356.16. This update will get Insiders who are on Build 18356.16 back into a good state so they can update to Build 18362. We are allowing a few days for this update to roll out before offering Build 18362 – so that means Insiders will still not see Build 18362 offered after updating to Build 18356.21. But stay tuned!
