Windows 10: Quality Update 21H1 fails with error 0x800f0905 and starts over every day

Since Dec 30, 2021, my laptop has been trying to install the latest quality update 21H1. After choking resources to a point that my machine is unusable for about an hour every morning it says installation failed. The cycle has been repeating every day since then, which essentially means I have to sit through this annoying process every morning for all of 2022 so far. Productivity has taken a hit because I cannot start on my work until I give my laptop an hour to do its thing. I do not have the option to turn off updates since I have apparently reached my maximum postponement option. I search

KB4025339 Fails Install 0x80070564

Thanks
I am trying Eagle 51's suggestions now. Windows Update troubleshooter found a bunch of errors and fixed all but one.The update is trying to download KB4025339 again. I'll see what happens. At step one troubleshooter finishes with one error unresolved "Potential Windows Update Database Error Detected-Not Fixed". Windows update stalled at 0%.

At step 2 same troubleshooter error. The KB finished a new download failed to install.
Did step 3 KB has downloaded but fails to install.

If Eagle's suggestion doesn't work I'll try EdTittel's suggestion

Tried bothe Eagle & Ed 's suggestions - do not work. Anyone else?

I have noticed that the latest update for my nvidia drivers has failed to update. Wondering about that!
