Please upload a new copy of the COMPONENTS hive as well, it seems there's a new VersionIndex key created in the meantime.

Upload your COMPONENTS hive.
  • Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file.
  • Please copy this file to your desktop.
  • Note: If you receive an error that this file is in-use, simply reboot your computer and try again.
  • Right-click on this file on your desktop and select Send To > Compressed (zipped) folder. This will create a file named COMPONENTS.ZIP on your desktop.
  • If the file is too large to upload here, upload the file to www.wetransfer.com and post the link in your next reply.
 
The latest update you've tried to install is a preview update. It is not recommended to install such updates while troubleshooting other (Patch Tuesday) updates. So I would suggest to perform the following instructions.

Windows 10 In Place Upgrade
This will repair and update the current operating system and fix any corruptions, without removing any file or program. But make always a backup of all your important data!
  • Go to this Microsoft page and under the title Create Windows 10 installation media press on Download tool now.
  • Save the tool on your Desktop and double click to run it.
  • On the License terms page, if you accept the license terms, select Accept.
  • On the What do you want to do page, select Create installation media (USB....) and then select Next.
  • Choose the ISO file option. Once the download is complete, right click the ISO and select the option Mount.
  • Open the Windows File Explorer and open mounted ISO, and run the setup.exe file.
  • Follow the instructions and click on the option Change what to keep.
  • Select the option Keep personal files and apps and click next.
  • Windows Setup will now start the in-place upgrade installation to repair Windows.
 
DEAR MAXSTAR,

Thank you so much for your support all through the resolving the issue. My requested issue has already been resolved, i.e installation of Windows Subsystem for Linux. However, to clean every update issue with my windows 10 system, I will try your this fix also.

Moreover, I am a learner/a student/an IT Guy. How could I contribute my services to this platform as this platform is helping thousands of users free of cost. Also, tell us how to learn these things to help others.

Thanks again. May Allah Bless you.
