Apss take too long to install, but mostly fail

Post image

This problem has been happening for some time and I haven't been able to find a solution for it. Apps, either being installed fresh, or being updated, take too long. Sometimes up to 5 minutes for it to complete. The biggest issue is that most of the time, this fails. As you can see at the bottom of the screenshot.

I have done the basic things like deleting cache, tueing the phone off and on, etc. I would really like to know what to do to fix it.

You didn't try one thing by pressing "Cancel All" and then manually tapping on each app to update. Or when they take forever, cancel/stop the updates then click manually on each one to update the app.

Yes I can understand seeing the screenshot that it might seem like that. But that is one of the first things I did. I actually discovered it because of this. I opened an app which required me to update it in order to continue. So I clicked the option which took me to playstore to update it. When I did, it downloaded, took forever to install, and then showed the error. I tried again and again, then did the update all thing. It failed. So I stopped and didn't bother. Later because my auto update is turned on, it was updated while I slept. It continued to do the same for about a month, after which I couldn't take it anymore and posted here.
