I do not know if it will work. The update's pending status might mean that some update-related services cannot be stopped by the tutorial's batch file so the reset attempt might fail.
But don't be worried by any error messages you see while the tutorial's batch file is running; it needs to cope with a variety of installations so it includes deleting files that might not exist on your computer.
I would not be at all surprised if you end up having to reboot before that update warning disappears even if the tutorial's batch file has worked.
I hope the tutorial's batch file stops that Windows 11 update. I do not believe that anything else can.

It is definitely too late for FreeBooter's suggestion to be worth trying. And, in any case, it is merely presenting what is in the the relevant tutorial anyway.
