  Hi there!

  On WordPress.com, we take care of updates in the backend, so our users don’t have to worry about it. Since your site is not hosted with us, we can’t really help.

  I suggest posting to https://wordpress.org/support/forums/. Folks there will have more experience with self-hosted sites, and they can advise better.

  If you’d like to read more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, have a look at this page:
