Took eight minutes from time of clicking to Check Updates to installed and done. This included a slow down of the install for two minutes at 74%. All appears well.

I ran DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:C:\RepairSource\Windows /LimitAccess
and it completed to 100% then closed. I do not have access to a second system, btw. All I have is a clone of my boot drive which was made three weeks ago prior to upgrading to 1903. I THOUGHT I had several restore points too, but looked just now and the only one there is from two hours ago.
Then I ran sfc /scannow and it completed to 100% with no errors. Then I restarted, tried WU again, and again it was unable to complete the install of the update. I noticed afterward a pop-up in the bottom right that said "recent updates were unable to install, click here for more information", so I clicked on the arrow for more information, however nothing happened.
I don't know if I am mistaken, but the command-line "DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:C:\RepairSource\Windows /LimitAccess" asks to replace " C:\RepairSource\Windows ", placeholder with the location of your source. That is what you had not probably done. To do it, you have to download an ISO from Microsoft Windows 10 download page and mount it https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/soft...load/windows10. Then use it (mounted drive letter) as your source for the command-line to work.

@johnhoh,
For a better understanding of what I was talking about in previous post, you can have a look at this tutorial by Brink:
Use DISM to Repair Windows 10 Image Performance & Maintenance:
Use DISM to Repair Windows 10 Image
Good and let see if you can overcome this stalemate with the mounted ISO. One thing that seems obvious is that the Windows Update component store is corrupt and this approach with the /LimitAccess switch is probably the best way to fix it.
UPDATE: I forgot to mention to pay special attention to steps 6 & 7 in Brink's tutorial from the previous post about Install.wim and Install.esd respectively.
Installed successfully, but Disk Cleanup did not offer to clean up anything from Windows Update this time.
