    Try manual procedure.

    WP:
    try MANUAL updating. Download a fresh copy of the WordPress .zip file to your computer, unzip it, and use that to copy up all files and folders EXCEPT the wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory. You may need to delete the old copies of files & folder on your server before uploading the new ones. Read the Manual Update directions first.

    Plugins:
    Try manual installing of plugin: https://codex.wordpress.org/Managing_Plugins#Manual_Plugin_Installation

    Try editing .htaccess

    Make sure you back up .htaccess before you edit it.

    Add the following line to .htaccess:

    php_value max_execution_time 300

    OR, try editing php.ini

    Add the following to php.ini

    max_execution_time = 300 ;

    If you are unsure of how to make these changes, or if you are on shared hosting that prevents you from making them yourself, you should contact your hosting provider and ask them to increase your maximum execution time.

    Note: Try auto updating with 300, if that does not work, try 600
