WUpdate Always Gives Me Error 0x80070003
Hello.
As the title says, every time I tried to install an update (especially KB5003173 and KB5003214) it fails during installation process on restart. It always says "We couldn't complete the update. Undoing changes". When I check it in event viewer, both gives me error 0x80070003 which I couldn't find the solution on Google. All of them says that I need to reset SoftwareDistribution folder, doing sfc scannow, dism etc etc but nothing works.
Trying to force the update by manually downloading the .msu and installing it using wusa returns the same error message.
One thing to note that this happened the first time when I tried to upgrade my Windows from 2004 to 20H2. That time when my PC was ready for 20H2, it tried to install but fails with the same error message. So what I do is forcing the upgrade using new Windows installation .iso file. Somehow that worked.
What do I need to do here then? I'm already frustrated to solve this problem. Note that I have a lot of free space on C: so I didn't think it is the culprit.
I need help on this. Thanks.
Currently installed updates on my system. Currently my Windows version is 20H2-19042.870
