Thanks!

I see the issue!

Retrieve Components Hive
1. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file.
2. Please copy this file to your desktop.
Note: If you receive an error that this file is in-use, simply reboot your computer and try again.
3. Right-click on this file on your desktop and select Send To...Compressed (zipped) folder. This will create a file named COMPONENTS.ZIP on your desktop.
4. The file will likely be too large to upload here so please upload to a file sharing service and just provide the link here.

No errors came up. I made a quick backup and was able to install all remaining updates that have been released since then. So far everything is working smoothly. No idea how you found that preview patch from the error "amd64_microsoft-windows-s..-downlevel.binaries_31bf3856ad364e35_6.3.9600.18665_none_5f811e34ff60b71f\MsSpellCheckingFacility.exe [HRESULT = 0x80070002 - ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND]". Curious to know more about it if you are ever willing to share. Thanks again!

I searched for it within your COMPONENTS hive and then using that data I traced it to the update in question. :)

Glad to have helped!
