I've tried the Update Manager method but it didn't upgrade. How do get it to upgrade? Thanks in advance!

How? You don't! There are issues with upgrading like this that can cause a lot of problems:

What you could try is to uninstall the Wubi version of 10.04 and do a fresh install of 10.10; this would be my first recommendation.

... and backup all your data on Wubi first or it'll be gone!!
