Error code 0x8007007a when installing Windows Update KB5001330

0

I am using Windows 10 version 20H2 Professional Edition (x64) version number 10.0.19042.906.

I have encountered a problem when installing updates today, all other updates installed successfully except for "2021-04 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 20H2 for x86-based Systems (KB5001330)", this update fails to install every time I try, it shows "Status: Installing - 100%" before displaying this message:

Error encountered:

There were some problems installing updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help: (0x8007007a)

I have tried cleaning C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download folder before restarting wuauserv and it didn't help.

I have also tried running this script and it also didn't help (which isn't surprising in the least):

$Letter=(Get-DiskImage -ImagePath D:\ISO\Win10_20H2_v2_English_x64.iso | Get-Volume).DriveLetter
IF (!$Letter) {Mount-DiskImage -ImagePath D:\ISO\Win10_20H2_v2_English_x64.iso -StorageType ISO}
$Letter=(Get-DiskImage -ImagePath D:\ISO\Win10_20H2_v2_English_x64.iso | Get-Volume).DriveLetter
dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup /resetbase
dism /online /cleanup-image /spsuperseded
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth /source:${Letter}:\sources\install.wim:6
sfc /scannow

And these are what I found in eventvwr:

And yes, I have researched error code 0x8007007a —— with what? Google, of course, what else? And it again proves to be futile.

I have Google searched "Windows Update 0x8007007a" and this is the result.

The results are mostly related to "Windows Live Mail", OneDrive and Outlook, and they are related to getting this error code when sending out emails, but as you can see this is not the case here, I don't use OneDrive and Mail apps, I rarely use emails and I don't send messages out, though I have Microsoft accounts I don't use them in Mail app, I use them in browsers and this has no connection whatsoever with Windows Update...

So how on earth can I fix this issue? Thanks in advance.

Update

So I retried to install this particular update today and found more relevant information.

I found this error:

Windows update "Security Update for Windows (KB5001330)" could not be installed because of error 2147942522 "The data area passed to a system call is too small." (Command line: ""C:\Windows\system32\wusa.exe" "C:\Users\Estranger\Downloads\windows10.0-kb5001330-x64_48f2955cc5688bf56b32be1cca4cd1f02f1d36e2.msu" ")

And this warning that had appeared multiple times:

And I think they are related.

I found the key:

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2593f8b9-4eaf-457c-b68a-50f6b8ea6b54}]
@="PerAppRuntimeBroker"
"AppID"="{15c20b67-12e7-4bb6-92bb-7aff07997402}"

And I don't know what to do next.

How can I install this update successfully?
