Windows 10: stuck on update KB4493440 Error0X80070002

I went to check to see if my computer was up to date to try and fix some issues with launching the new halo Infinite game. I found out that I was still on update KB4493440 and getting Error 0X80070002. I went through many different things online and none of the CMD stuff shows any corruption. I try to do a full system recovery and it fails, undoing any reset that it was trying to do. I have tried to install the update with the Windows update catalog and it works but when I restart it does not stay. I have tried to install newer updates and it says that "the update is not applicable to your com

KB4493440 will not install, error 0x80240034

I have a laptop where Windows Update had been stuck trying to install KB4493440 (2019-04 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1709) since last year. It would repeatedly try then fail. I finally tried to sort this out, and while I have made progress,
this update still shows up in the list and still fails.

It fails with error 0x80240034, and this is a summary of what I have tried so far:

1) Installing the update from Microsoft Update Catalog was successful but did not remove it from the list in Windows Update. The Update History shows a successful install on the appropriate day, with later failed attempts
to install it.

2) Updating Windows manually from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 got the computer up to a current version, but did not resolve the issue with this update.

3) Following the steps at Windows Update - Additional resources - Windows Deployment to run the 2 scripts for resetting Windows Update did not help. After rebooting, Windows Update detected the same update, which resulted in the same
error.

4) Ran DISM and System File Checker, then rebooted. Still the same.

What else can I try?

Many thanks,

Shawn
