You shouldn't be rooted. Should have stock recovery. Get the ota zip, rename it to update.zip, place it in root path of inetrnal or external storage.
Flash from stock recovery.

Did you flash any custom ROM earlier.. sometimes encryption may create provlem.
Better flash stock s244 fastboot file given in below link

Then update to s251 via ota.Then try s252 uodate.zip

No need to factory reset if u haven't unlock the bootloader. Don't have any other suggestion now.
You can skip this update as the is no notable change

You should put the update file in the root of external storage, and external storage should not be encrypted.
File should be renamed as "update.zip"
Boot into recovery then, there's option to install update from external storage or something like that, (don't know exact option coz right now I am on custom rom) select that option and your device should be updated.

Oh!, have you checked the zip file if it was not downloaded correctly, and/or if it was copied correctly to the sd-card
coz, I followed the same method many times, whenever, I want to flash ota and faced no problem.
Anyways, as the folks said there's not much in the update.

I have flashed today after thinking allot, Currently didn't find any difference apart from build no as all said.

Update!
I could see there are minor performance improvement & noticable battery life improvement.

 

[DS-1]

My stock don't laggs.

I believe that 99% users here don't have lags in the UI. Lags from stock come in Instagram and videos playing.

It's nice to know that you have no lags on instagram, video playing, whatsapp stories, ecc.

Can you please link us the rom you used? Thanks

Just backup everything & reset is enough. There isn't any need of flashing row again to my knowledge ihv done it twice after nov 2017 update.
