For the last two weeks, I've been having stability problems with various different programs on my computer, especially web browsers and voice chat apps (Discord and Skype). After running diagnostics on all my hardware and checking recently installed programs and updates, today I tried updating all my drivers, and I noticed my Windows 10 installation doesn't have update 2004 or 20H2. My driver updates all installed without any problems, but the Windows 10 updates kept failing with error 0x80073701. I then tried doing the following actions:
-Ran Windows Update Troubleshooter (couldn't find anything wrong)
-Reset Windows Update (ran the script from this page, script ran successfully, update still failed to install with the same error)
-Downloaded the update package for 2004 from http://download.windowsupdate.com/c..._bd543ce012ec1695201cdb2d324a2206bd445132.msu and tried installing it locally (gave me error 0x8024200B)
-Made sure the wuauserv, cryptSvc, bits, and msiserver services were all running (no difference)
I'm still stuck on error 0x8024200B. Does anyone have other troubleshooting suggestions for me to try, or should I just back up my files, reinstall my OS/do a factory reset, and hope for the best?
