Error 0x80070002 when trying to update Windows

I have been having issues for months with Windows 10 updates failing due to Error 0x80070002 on my gaming laptop. The full message reads:

2019-06 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1803 for x64-based Systems (KB4503286) -Error 0x80070002.

I am currently on version 1803 (OS Build 17134.590) and I'm being told "You're currently running a version of windows that's nearing the end of support. We recommend you update to the most recent version of Windows 10 now to get the latest features and security improvements."

I have followed the instructions on Error Code 0x80070002 Fixed – Eassos Step-by-Step Tutorial but this hasn't resolved the problem. Does anybody know how to fix this?

 

2024-01 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 11 Version update error

I have been trying to update 2024-01 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 11 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5034204), but whenever I try to download and install, I am getting the following error Install error - 0x80070002

 

Windows won't let me install a 2024/07 Cumulative Update

I was on my laptop and proceeded to update Windows 11 to the latest version possible, like BIOS updates, Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool updates, etc.

But there's a catch: I'm having issues with installing a Cumulative Windows Update.

After installing every software update possible, I let my laptop sit for a while to install a more recent 2024/07 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 23H2 (KB5040442).

That didn't go quite well, it was still stuck at a 2024/06 Cumulative Update, and after I checked for updates, I realized that the Windows 11 23H2 cumulative update (KB5040442) has a "Download and install error" message, maybe that's the reason why.

So can you pls tell me how to fix this to never happen again? Thanks.
