cumulative updates fail to install. Both KB5018410 and KB5016616 failed on installation.

My computer is a DELL Optiplex 3020. Both recent cumulative updates (KB5018410 and KB5016616) have failed on installation. The code is 0x800f0845. I have tried all the suggested things to try to get the update to go through up to an in-place update. All other updates go through with no problem. Just the cumulative updates. I have version 21H2 build 19044.1826.

 

Clean Windows 10 (?PRO?) install

As far as I am aware there is no Windows 10 Pro version.
But I'd be happy to be wrong.

 

Upgrading from Windows 10 1709 to 21H2 fails

I have an HP laptop with AMD 6-9225 Radeon R4 that has never been upgraded from its original Windows 10 ver. 1709. I have attempted to upgrade it to the latest Windows 10 ver. 21H2, but the install fails every time. I have followed every suggestion I can find on the internet, hoping someone could steer me to success but to no avail. I'm not sure if this particular HP laptop is capable of being upgraded to 21H2. It does not appear in a list on the HP website of those models that was tested for 21H2 compatibility. I really would like to try an earlier version such as 1909 or 2004 to see if they would install okay, but I can not find a way to do that. When I use the Create Windows 10 installation media tool, it automatically goes to 21H2. It doesn't give me the option to choose an earlier version. I thought maybe I could get an earlier version from the Microsoft Update Catalog, but I have no idea how to find it in the thousands of downloads listed there. Does anyone know if there is a way to download and install an earlier version of Windows 10? Your help will be appreciated.
