I can't update Windows 10. I get error 0x80070003


2021-12 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 20H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5008212)


When I download the update and apply it manually it says it's installed.


It will download on the check for updates page. It does install. When I reboot it removes it.

I have run the Windows Update Troubleshooter.

I have run this bat file:
Code:
@Echo On
    net stop bits
    net stop wuauserv
    net stop appidsvc
    net stop cryptsvc
    net stop Superfetch

if exist "%SYSTEMROOT%\SoftwareDistribution" (
    attrib -r -s -h /s /d "%SYSTEMROOT%\SoftwareDistribution"
 )   
Set i=1
:again
If exist "C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution.old_%i%" (
set  /A i=i+1
goto again)
Set x=%i%
ren C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old_%x%
 Set i=1
:again2
If exist "%systemroot%\system32\catroot2.old_%i%" (
set  /A i=i+1
goto again2)
Set x=%i%

You currently have a thread open at BleepingComputer, please do not create threads across multiple forums, since it can confuse the helpers who are trying to fix your system. For now, I would suggest that you continue in the BleepingComputer thread and come back here, if the helper has exhausted all their possible suggestions.
 
A person at BleepingComputer suggested that I should come here. They thought I would get a better response. The helper there gave up on it being a technical issue with windows and thinks it may be a malware issue. I don't think it's a malware issue and thought it would better get resolved here.
 
I have narrowed it down to one MS update:
2022-01 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 20H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5009543)
That I can't install.

I have discovered that this update causes problems with VPNs that I use and Outlook that I don't use.

I really don't want to cause more problems with the VPNs that I use so I have decided to not continue to try to get this update installed.

Thank you for your time,
