Error downloading some updates 0x80004002

Question

Hi,
I get this recurring error in Windows Update since weeks. I tried every imaginable proposed solutions I found including restore health using DISM, SFC, Bits and other services check, different DLLs registered and checked and so one, but excluding Windows 10 re-installation or refresh. I do not want to have to reinstall my apps and programs. Other updates install OK. It's only stuck on these 3 (see picture). I can live without updating those 3. How can I stop windows to wanting to update those 3 items? PS: I also downloaded the packages directly from Microsoft Update but there is no executable within the CAB files. I also could not find anything in Device Manager that accepted to be updated by those packages.
Thanks for any NEW idea.
PS: in-between, I updated from v. 2004 to 20H2. Problem still the same.

Answer 1

Thanks, but as said, upgrade isn't proposed (greyed out), only clean install (when using a fresh 20H2 image and running setup.exe.
Reasons:

1. you try to install windows in an non standard location (mine is c:\windows) very uncommon indeed (sarcastic)
2. you try to install an older version. (my Windows is 20H2 and I just downloaded a fresh 20H2 ISO image for the install)

If using the image creation tool, then it states that it does not support this version (enterprise).

I'm stuck at this point...
