HELP! Windows Update Error Code: 0x8007007e

I really don't know where to start with this update process. This has been the the most frustrating experience to date, possibly more frustrating than I have ever experienced with Windows and that includes Windows 3.0 but I digress.


The last update I tried to gave this message:


Feature update to Windows 10, version 1903 - Error 0x80070002

I tried this update the following dates - this is pulled from the update logs:


Feature update to Windows 10, version 1903 (2)

Last failed install attempt on ‎18-‎Dec-‎19 - 0x80240034

Feature update to Windows 10, version 1903 (2)

Last failed install attempt on ‎02-‎Dec-‎19 - 0x80240034


Feature update to Windows 10, version 1903 (4)

Last failed install attempt on ‎02-‎Dec-‎19 - 0x80240034


Previous to this I tried to update to the then most recent available with these results:


Feature update to Windows 10, version 1809 x64 2019-05 (123)
Last failed install attempt on ‎22-‎Oct-‎19 - 0x80240034


And then there were a hold bunch of other further updates that failed:


2018-05 update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for X64 based Systems (KB4134661) (128)
Last failed install attempt on ‎18-‎Dec-‎19 - 0x80240034



Then there was this message back in August:


2019-08 update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for X64 based Systems (KB4023057)

Successfully installed on ‎30-‎Aug-‎19



So can any one explain and help me update Windows? I've tried using "Windows 10 Update Assistant" today ran it twice and both times a message popped up saying "something went wrong". This is incredibly frustrating as the failed attempts today have taken me about 6 hours for the update to download, then start installing only to fail again when it reaches around 87%.


I have approx 300GB free HDD space, I was running no other programs apart from Norton Security in the background.


Any help would be appreciated.
