    Hello BasiCoder,

    Thank you for providing us the opportunity to assist you.

    As per the issue description you are getting this error code while running the troubleshooter. When you use Windows Update or Microsoft Update to install updates, you may receive Error code: 0x80070490. If you are getting this error code it means the Component-Based Servicing (CBS) manifest is corrupted.

    This issue may be also if some system files are corrupted. I would suggest you to follow these methods and check if it helps:

    Method 1:

    Ensure that there isn’t any Group Policy setting which is blocking you from running troubleshooter.

    1. Go to start and type gpedit.msc.
    2. Select gpedit from the list.
    3. Navigate to the following location:

    Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Troubleshooting and Diagnostics\Scripted Diagnostics

    Check these settings and ensure that they’re not disabled:

    Troubleshooting: Allow users to access and run Troubleshooting Wizards

    Troubleshooting: Allow users to access online troubleshooting content on Microsoft servers from the Troubleshooting Control Panel (via the Windows Online Troubleshooting Service - WOTS)

    Method 2

    If issue still persist then try to follow the steps provided in the article mentioned below.

    Windows Update error 0x80070490

    Hope this would help. If issue still persists post back with current status of your computer and result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to assist you.

    Regards,
