Errors like this are logged. Check the error log on your server. If you can’t find the log, please contact your host.
Meantime, enable wp_debug and wp_debug_log and after an error, look at wp-content/debug.log to see if anything gets logged there. https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress
If you cannot access wp-admin, there are other ways to deactivate plugins.
I activated debug. Tried to update to 4.8.2 again and got this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_doing_cron() in \\BOSWINFS01\HOME\users\web\b403\ywh.logodesigngroup\wp-admin\includes\file.php on line 776
A look at that file gave me this at line 776+:
if ( wp_doing_cron() ) {
$available_space = @disk_free_space( WP_CONTENT_DIR );
if ( $available_space && ( $uncompressed_size * 2.1 ) > $available_space )
return new WP_Error( ‘disk_full_unzip_file’, __( ‘Could not copy files. You may have run out of disk space.’ ), compact( ‘uncompressed_size’, ‘available_space’ ) );
}
Check with your host. Have you hit a disk space quota?
OK, let’s focus on Call to undefined function wp_doing_cron()
Please do a manual update for WordPress to make sure all files are really there:

Well, I did the manual update and now I cannot access the site at all.
I see a 500 error. Errors like this are logged. Check the error log on your server. If you can’t find the log, please contact your host.

You can also try this: Please attempt to disable all plugins, and use one of the default (Twenty*) themes. If the problem goes away, enable them one by one to identify the source of your troubles.

Here’s the error on the log:
PHP Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required ‘\\BOSWINFS01\HOME\users\web\b403\ywh.logodesigngroup/wp-includes/widgets/class-wp-widget-media.php’ (include_path=’.;C:\php\pear’) in \\BOSWINFS01\HOME\users\web\b403\ywh.logodesigngroup\wp-includes\default-widgets.php on line 23
It looks like some WP files may be missing. Do a manual update to ensure they’re all there. https://codex.wordpress.org/Updating_WordPress#Manual_Update
I reinstalled my old wp files. Still unable to update to new version of WP
