Error appears to be.

1) You missed recent change in the development cycle and Microsoft is no longer using that version
2) software distribution folder (hidden Under) C:\Windows (has become corrupted over time)
3) bad update for the Windows update services

Check and down load the newest version of development cycle for Windows 11.
Go to your favorite web browser and search for the articles on softwaredistribution folder fix.
Wait and recheck to see if Microsoft has fixed the issue.
Take a look at:

The article for Windows 11 is not available yet, so you may follow the one for Windows 10 instead.

Hello Darkemance,

Have tried with 'softwaredistribution folder' to fix the issue but it's still make the windows update error encountered.
Which part didn't work?
Please share it so we could guide you.
Just followed every tips from the link unless the perform a clean installation for windows, since i dont want to reset my windows to factory reset Reza.
So you followed all steps and it didn't worked, correct?
In this case, open start and search for feedback and open Feedback Hub app and report this issue.
Try change the Channel from Dev to Beta and see if this will solve the issue.
