For 1.5 months, I have not been able to update Windows10-Homever-2004 (OS Build 1904.1)
I do have User Account Control (UAC) Administrator Rights, a Windows Live Account also Windows 10 Activation and Product ID#
30 Oct 2020 - Day 1 - began because for over a week, Windows Update fails, Troubleshooters unable to Repair.
31 Oct 2020 - Day 2 - System Restore did not complete - possibly due to Anti-Virus & Malware enabled, causing this. I Did Disable both Norton & Malwarebytes on another attempt Day 3
------------
Windows Update
There were problems downloading some updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this, try searching the web or contacting support for help. This error code might help: (0x8000ffff)
The error code 0x8000ffff means your Windows 10 is having update issues. This error usually appears after Windows updates and locks the Windows Store.
------------
I have ran Troubleshooting Windows Update several times, receive ErrorCode: 0x80070057
Another Error when running any Troubleshooters ErrorCode: 0x800705B4
------------
I have ran CMD Admin: SFC /scannow with error unable to repair

I have further done the following
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Checkhealth
The component store is repairable. The operation completed successfully.
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
The component store is repairable. The operation completed successfully.
DISM.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

1 Nov 2020 after twice deleting Win10's SoftwareDistribution Folder - still cannot Update Win10 Home as of 6 No2020

Another issue I encounter is Windows Start and type in Services.msc and receive the following Red Error Screen
This app has been blocked for your protection.
An administrator has blocked you from running this app. mmc.exe
Although I can Open Task Manager, select Services Tab, at the bottom a link to Open Services for purpose of stopping or starting specific services needed if/when prompted.
