Can't update Windows, stuck on Version 1909 (OS Build 18363.1139)

I have a problem with windows update, I am stuck on version 1909 and update always fails when I try it. I have tried pretty much every solution except completely reinstalling windows. When I do the windows update troubleshooter it gives an error. I have ran Chkdsk from command prompt, /sfc scannow doesn't run for some reason even after trying fixes. Have tried to use the windows update assistant but it doesn't work. Also tried manually downloading the updates and past restore points.

Windows update troubleshooter gives error "WaaSMedicService Issues remediated by :CorruptionRepairPlugin;AppCleanerPlugin;EnableUUPScanPlugin"

When the update fails it says "There were problems installing some updates, but we'll try again later. Feature update to Windows 10, version 20H2 - Error 0x800706be

Security Update for Windows 10 Version 1909 for x64-based Systems (KB4535680) - Error 0x8000ffff

Not sure what else to do other than a complete reinstall of Windows. Also am unable to upgrade to Windows 11 because I'm stuck on old version.

Attached dism log and setupdiag results.

Hi

Please do the following.

Clink on this link and download KB5005412 servicing stack update to your desktop.
Double click on the downloaded file and follow the installation instructions.

If the installation is not successful please let me know.

If the installation is successful please try windows update again and attach CBS.log if it fails.
 
The installation was not successful. After clicking the link and starting the download I got a message that "The update is not applicable to your computer." I click OK and the Standalone Installer closes.
 
Hi, Please do the following.

Step#1 - Capture Process Monitor Trace
1. Download and run Process Monitor. Leave this running while you perform the next steps.
2. Try updating the system just like you have in the past.
3. Stop Process Monitor as soon as the it fails. You can simply do this by clicking the magnifying glass on the toolbar as shown below.

4. Select the File menu...Save... and save the file to your desktop. This is likely the default location. The name (unless changed) will be LogFile.PML. This is fine.
5. Zip up and provide the link to the LogFile.PML file as well as your CBS.log Examples of services to upload to are Dropbox or OneDrive or SendSpace.
 
Hi

Please do the following.

Remove Update Manually

3. When command prompt opens, copy and paste the following command into it, and press Enter
wusa /uninstall /KB:KB4535684

4. Let me know if it says it was successful or if there are any errors
 
Please do the following.

Step#1 - DISM /RestoreHealth Scan


Warning:this fix is specific to the user in this thread. No one else should follow these instructions as it may cause more harm than good. If you are after assistance, please start a thread of your own.
  1. Right-click on the Start button and select Command Prompt (Admin)
  2. When command prompt opens, Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Right-click > Paste) the following command into it, then press Enter
    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
  3. Once it finishes, copy and paste the following into the command-prompt window and press Enter. If prompted to overwrite the existing file go ahead.
    copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt"
  4. Once this has completed please go to your Desktop and you will find CBS.txt => Please zip/upload to this thread.
    Please Note:: if the file is too big (over 7MB) to upload to your next post, please upload via a service such as Dropbox or OneDrive or SendSpace and just provide the link.
 
DISM restore failed at 59.8% and it says "DISM failed. No operation was performed. Error: 0x8000ffff"
 
I then tried the 3rd step and it tells me The system cannot find the path specified. 0 files copied
 
Ok, please post the cbs.log
 
Sure, here is the CBS.log
CBS.txt was not on the desktop so I had to go to C:>Windows>Logs>CBS to get it.
