Windows 10: Problems with Windows Update & Xbox Gaming Services

I'm encountering an issue with my Xbox app on Windows where the Gaming Services update seems to be stuck in a perpetual downloading loop. This problem has an adverse effect on my system's ability to install Windows Updates as well, leaving them perpetually at 0%. I also received the error code "Error 1053" while attempting to start the Windows Updates in the Services application when following web tutorials, which also leads to DSIM Restore being stuck at exactly 62.3%.

Microsoft Xbox Gaming Services - Error

THAT'S IT!

 

Xbox 360 Live Update

A new update for the Xbox 360 has been released over Xbox Live. The update, available upon signing on to the Xbox Live service with a 360, offers a few minor bug fixes, as well as a seal over a minor security hole that would-be system hackers had been experimenting with. Here's the update list:

• Improvements to the Xbox Guide.
• Option to retain your saved games when you delete a profile.
• Increased accuracy of "last time played."
• Network configuration improvements for Xbox Live® members in the Netherlands.
• More detailed messaging for unreadable disk or region errors.

Delete Xbox Services

I do not use XBox. Is there a way to delete (not disable) the following Xbox components from the Services?

• Xbox Accessory Management Service,
  
• Xbox Live Auth Manager,
  
• Xbox Live Game Save
  
• Xbox Live Networking Service
