In the Update History:
Installed Successfully on 18/12/2021
Failed to install on 31/12/2021 - 0x800f0922
So it seems it did install on 18/12 but continues to fail to install it again!
Things I have tried from other advice found online:

Hello Kapril,
Many thanks for your reply.
Unfortunately neither Fix 1 nor Fix 2 solved my problem.
In case it's useful, when I ran Fix 2, the DISM produced these messages:
Version 10.0.19041.844
Image Version 10.0.19044.1348
A new driver also got installed during the update:
Intel Software Component 1.63.1155.1
I welcome any more suggestions.
Happy New Year,
Steve

It's impossible for Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth to output that.
Please run the following from an Admin terminal in the order listed:
WinKey+ R → Open: powershell → Ctrl+Shift+OK Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup ; Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth ; Sfc /ScanNow ![](data:image/svg+xml, %3Csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' height='64' class='font-weight-bold' style='font: 600 30.11764705882353px "SegoeUI", Arial' width='64'%3E%3Ccircle fill='hsl(272, 97%, 36%)' cx='32' cy='32' r='32' /%3E%3Ctext x='50%25' y='55%25' dominant-baseline='middle' text-anchor='middle' fill='%23FFF' %3ESD%3C/text%3E%3C/svg%3E)
All commands ran successfully.
But the problem remains, I still get the same error when installing the latest Windows update.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
I missed your comment, so on a side note as a general FYI:
Dism and Sfc don't fix an issue, and the cause of the issue isn't readily apparent after an hour or so of searching online, I generally recommend a Repair Install since it's simply more efficient than spending hours troubleshooting. If a repair install doesn't fix an issue, the issue isn't the OS but a third-party program or malware, as a repair install replaces all files within %WinDir%, as well as a handful of system files within %ProgramData%, %ProgramFiles%, and %ProgramFiles(x86)%
sources\install.esd | | install.wim within 7zip (prior to doing so, you'll want to determine the specific index [image] to look within by executing from an admin terminal: Dism /Get-ImageInfo /ImageFile:"Z:\sources\install.wim" - you can mount the image, in lieu of using 7zip, but I find 7zip more efficient: Dism /Mount-Image /ImageFile:"Z:\sources\install.wim" /Index:<#> /MountDir:"C:\Mount" and unmount via Dism /Unmount-Image /MountDir:"C:\Mount" /Discard)%UserProfile% [ Documents, Downloads, etc.] to a partition other than C: and shrinking C: to a maximum 300GB [RAW: 307201] since you'll never exceed that with user data directories on a partition other than C: (for each user data directory: Properties → Location tab → Move)
My post, that you deleted, was not spam and could well have been useful to anyone watching this problem as it detailed the excellent support I got from support technicians at RESTORO which I contrasted with how any posts here are followed-up or not.
The final solution for me was a re-installation of Windows.
Feel free to close this.
I flagged the reply as spam because it read like a spam post written by a bot, commenting under the reply that it appeared to be a spam post due to how it was written.
I hope you weren't instructed to do a Clean Install of Windows, as a Repair Install will fix any system issue while leaving installed programs and user data untouched (for a Repair Install, launch setup.exe from the Windows Install ISO while booted to Windows, selecting to keep all data and settings).
