Sometimes, most of us when in a rush to fix our issue, we forget a quintessential step, that is to do a full system image backup.
With that being said, I don't really know your OS setup, but I would suggest:
-To disconnect all external HDDs and disable your McAfee total protection
-Run sfc /scannow
-Troubleshoot Windows Update. If that doesn't help, you can also try to reset Windows Update:
Reset Windows Update in Windows 10

-Lastly, you can also try this link where the same issue seems to have been resolved:

I do backups - but probably not often enough.
I disconncted my external drive.
I disabled McAfee A/V.
I ran sfc /scannow twice, each time it said it couldn't complete.
I ran sfc fix as per that link, twice.
The update still fails.
I'll probably end up formatting this drive as it isn't my main one and is just becoming a nuisance.
Thanks for your help anyway.
