    Hi Haruka, This is Ramesh.

    It appears that the Windows Update service registration is broken, and hence the error code 2.

    Please run the Farbar Scanner and share your logs to check for malware.

    1. Download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool 64-bit (FRST64.exe)

    https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/farba...

    Note: If Microsoft Edge or Chrome mislabels the Farbar Scanner executable as PUA/malware, choose to keep it by tapping … in the bottom bar, choosing Keep, and then choosing Keep anyway in the dialog that appears. See this screenshot: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/me...

    1. If the OS language is non-English, rename FRST64.exe to FRST64English.exe.
    2. Run the program. Don't check or uncheck any options. Click "Scan".
    3. Zip the two logs, FRST.txt and Addition.txt, upload them to your OneDrive and share the link here.

    Hi over there : -- Because you've applied,..

    All the fixes available, without success and cited

    A partial - Quote "" thing that i can't do to fix it1. restore windows using system restore due to i did not make the restore point2. reinstall windows due to i don't have any bootable media to start reinstall windows and the computer is can't boot from usb and the DVD drive is broken ""

    is Reinstall windows : The same like reset Wins

    They are two different processes. if can not reinstall it

        then go forth, with the **reset**. Does it let you "Try it on"

    Is it better to reset Windows or reinstall,.?

    Reset Windows 10

    Windows will handle everything automatically and you won't need to use

    an external storage device. Resetting your device is less impactful

    than the clean install option. Though it will require sufficient disk space.
