When I want to run a program to install by using Run Advertised Programs, I get a message that something's running and can't be run. When I check the windows update status there are many things prepare to install or pending restart. Do I need to restart or wait til it finishes downloading or installing on "pending verification?"

Some screenshots are helpful. You should upload to imgur then simply link to the images in your question or a comment.

The windows updater is using a resource or has stopped a service that it is updating. Sometimes you can just wait until the install is complete, but most likely you will need to restart to have the components properly upgrade.
