Windows 10: Problem with installing the latest Windows update Version 20H2.

Hi, I'm trying to install the latest update version 20H2 but I have a laptop with a dead battery and it is is running off the power cable. Every time I turn on my laptop or restart it, I get a message telling me the battery needs to be replaced black screen that says press to continue. So, since the update tells me my laptop needs to restart multiple times, I'm guessing I interrupt the installation because of the battery I have my screen set to low brightness but it switch to high brightness during installation, so I think that kills the battery. Is there another way to install the updates? I'm trying to use the windows 10 update assistant but I'm getting an error code 0x80070652. Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks for reading.

problem installing software in version 20H2

Of course I took all precautions. I've been using a software for years (Acronis TIH latest version) and I have two backups as I always keep the latest backup when I make a new one. I just wanted to see if anyone has a similar problem with 20H2. On my own PC I am still on Windows 10 Home (x64) Version 2004 (build 19041.630) but this is my neighbor's PC which I had to completely load from scratch as his PC was so badly messed up. The last thing I did before I returned the PC to him was update to the latest 20H2 and then when I tried to install some last missing soft I ran into this problem. I don't want to spend a lot of time at my neighbor's house (COVID obliges) so now I will have to take the PC back to my house to work on it, which is what I was hoping to avoid.

Next step: restore the penultimate backup which I made before the update and see if that solves the problem.

PS:
Btw., I did check the system and the disks in various ways including all the ones you suggest like SCANNOW, CHKDSK, etc., as well as Windows check program included as one of the tools with IoBit's ASC Pro, and did turn off firewall, antivirus and similar stuff working off-line.
I've been using ASC Pro together with Bitdefender for years without any problems, as long as you take some precautions like making sure Antivirus and Malware protection don't run at the same time since these are also part of Bitdefender Internet Security. As for Driver Booster, never had any problem but it does include a restore that allows you to go back if anything is wrong. There is also a software updater that is very useful.
My backups are of course always on a separate physical drive, preferably an external one you can disconnect. I also use full backup, never incremental ones. PC's today are sufficiently fast and storage space cheap so that's not an issue.
I tend to be a little careful with free software, after all it does cost to develop and especially constantly keep up to date software so well known paid software I feel more confident in.

So it's back to the workbench...

OK, quick update, the problem was indeed related to the W10 update to 20H2. I restored the last backup I did before W10 was updated and everything worked fine so I could install all the remaining software. Once I finish installing everything and have a perfectly working system I will make a new backup, then update again and see if things still work.

Interesting to know if anybody else has run into similar problems with W10 20H2 ?
