E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
Tried running updates and got this error message.

Looked a little deeper on a google search. Found the following.
This error is actually telling you exactly what is wrong: dpkg was interrupted as a result the package was not configured correctly.

Run the command it tells you to sudo dpkg --configure -a and it should be able to correct itself.

If it doesn't try running sudo apt-get install -f(to fix broken packages) and then try running sudo dpkg --configure -a again.
It worked.
