    1. Hello Abhishek S,

      You can try this below work around

      1. Type gpedit.msc in RUN or Start search box and press Enter. It’ll open Group Policy Editor.

      2. Now go to:
      Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System
      3. In right-side pane, look for “Specify settings for optional component installation and component repair” option.
      4. The option would be set to Not Configured. Double-click on it, set it to Enabled and enable “Contact Windows Update directly to download repair content instead of Windows Server Update Services (WSUS)” option.

      You must Update Group policy either by restarting the system or
      Open Command Prompt as run as admin and type gpupdate/force

      Good Luck…

      Thank you
