It appears that my thread is dead as in "The thrill is gone". As previously stated, Microsoft Technical Support reinstalled Windows on my machine. After the restart, I received 12 updates, 11 of which installed. Following that restart, I received 9 more updates, 7 installed and 2 did not. During both of these updates, the problem were the usual suspects that started this mess, KB4487078 & KB4487256. Both of these updates Failed with Error Code 2. I have Hidden those Updates. Today, I started receiving more updates, 2 to 3 at a time, identical to the 2 previous ones regarding "...Quality Rollup for .NET Framework 3.5.1, 4.5.2, 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, 4.7, 4.7.1, 4.7.2...". All of these updates Failed with Error Code 2. The attached text file is a complete list of the failed updates. The order in the list is the way I received them from Windows Update.
