- This worked for me 👌

I restarted the update service, ran the troubleshooter and rebooted. Update KB5001330 continues to fail with error code 0x800f0984. Internet searching suggests the error code indicates component folders exist but component installer files are missing.
This issue kinds of seems like it is going to be: hold our breath and hope for an eventual fix. If components are missing, there isn't much we can do about that. I am going to pause updates for a few weeks so that my computer doesn't waste bandwidth trying the install repeatedly.
- Hey everyone, I was the one who was going to reset windows based on the recommendation of a Microsoft support agent, the problem was not fixed. I wrote the error code I was experiencing in my previous comment for the record. I'm gonna get on microsoft support again later, I don't have high hopes it'll be fixed today but I don't see this harming our computers in the long term. It's not a major update and as far as I know you can install newer updates without installing a previous one. Moreover, we should all just keep being vocal with our problems to microsoft and I believe a fix will be found soon.
