    I've used the Windows Creation Tool to create an installation USB drive N, and I ran the following commandI get error 0x800700a1 when I try to use Windows Update. I've done the DISM commands as... :DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:N:\It did its thing, then I did:sfc -scannowAnd it found some problems, it said it fixed them, but when I tried doing a Windows Update again, it gave the same error.I'm just at a loss of what to do. I've considered trying to upgrade to Windows 11, and hope that would take care of the issue during the upgrade, but I'm pretty hesitant in losing both functionality and efficiency.Perhaps I should be happy that I can't get Windows Updat

    Windows 10 fails to update


    Thanks,

    The Users list compared to the Profile list you posted earlier tell me there is not an issue with Users (a known issue where there is a profile in the list, but not actual User folder).

    The error code suggests corruption in the CBS manifest:
    Try these steps one at time until the issue is resolved or you run out of steps.

    Is Windows activated?
    No? Activate Windows 10

    Launch Command Prompt (Admin)
    enter the following line
    reg query HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate /s
    If DisableWindowsUpdateAccess REG_DWORD 0x1

    launch regedit
    navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate
    change the value of DisableWindowsUpdateAccess to 0
    exit regedit
    exit Command Prompt

    Launch Windows Update

    Try the next suggestion if the issue is not resolved.

    Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\TroubleshootingLaunch System and Security > Fix problems with Windows Update
    Press Advanced
