Windows 10: Windows Update/Microsoft Store erroring out

Hello there!

I've recently noticed issue with Microsoft Store/Windows Update service being unable to download anything.
Microsoft Store downloads typically do not finish or wind up being interrupted by 0x80D03805 code, which formerly used to be 0x80072F8F before I performed in-place upgrade to a beta channel build via Media Creation Tool.
Windows Updates stay at 0% indefinitely.





Besides reinstalling Windows, I've tried pretty much everything out there suggested for this type of problem: changing DNS address, resetting WU services, following local tutorials as well - nothing helped, so I would appreciate any help with this.
Windows version: 20H2/19042.508

Microsoft signals end of Paint program

Microsoft has confirmed that it will continue to offer its graphics program Paint.

In a recent update, it had listed Paint as a feature that would be either removed or no longer developed.

Paint, renowned for its simplicity, has been part of the Windows operating system since its launch in 1985.

Microsoft suggested it would not remain on Windows 10 by default but did say it would be available for free on the Windows Store.
