Windows 10: Winjdows 11 update error message 0x800705b4

For 5 days my Lenovo P1 Laptop with Windows 11 Pro installed has been giving me an error message when Update runs. I tried to run the troubleshooter but no success. This has never happened before so I am wondering if it is due to the recent cumulative update which ran the same time this error occurred.

- have you done anything specific to block Windows Update to stay on 1909?

If you look at your Update History (screenshot please) that will show which update (or feature update- upgrade) is failing.
