Hello, I have been stuck on version 1909 for the better part of a year. I constantly get windows updates notifications to update to 21H2 but every time I try to do so it fails. I have ensured there is enough disk space, as well as attempted to manually upgrade via the Media Creation tool. Short of a complete reinstall (something I don't want to do) I have tried random solutions found on Google but to no avail. I have attached a zipped CBS folder and the components scanner file. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi and welcome to Sysnative,

Follow these instructions to install an update with DISM.
  • Open the Start menu of Windows and type CMD.
  • When you see Command Prompt on the list, select the option Run as administrator.
  • Copy and paste the following command into it, and press enter. (Leave the CMD window open!)
Code:
MD C:\WUTemp
  • Now, download the attachement (SSU-19041.1677-x64.zip) to: C:\WUTemp - Or copy this file from the download directory to C:\WUTemp. (Important!)
  • Extract the ZIP-file in C:\WUTemp.

  • Copy and paste the following commands one at a time into the command prompt and press enter after each.
Code:

I Might be grasping at straws, but could it be related to being on Windows 10 Education edition?
 
Every Servicing Stack Update is suitable for all Windows 10 editions, there is only a difference in architecture (x86/x64). So could you please try to remove both using the instructions in the previous post.

Question: Have you tried to update this system with WSUS Offline?
