Windows 11 system updates keep failing

Hello, my laptop's Windows 11 update keeps failing. I have tried many times but still cannot get it to work. I need a solution that will allow me to update my laptop's system. Thank you for your response.

    Run Command Prompt as Administrator, execute the commands net stop wuauserv and net stop bits in sequence, then delete the C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution folder. Finally, execute net start wuauserv and net start bits to reset the Windows Update components.
