FIXED!!!!!!! A lot of troubleshooting went into this! I hope this process helps fix a lot of people's issues.
# Issue debugging and resolution path:
Running Windows update troubleshooter: finds things wrong and make some changes
Update still fails.
# From CMD (Admin Prompt)
SFC /scannow
- Passes:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
- Passes:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
- Passes saying can be repaired.
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
and
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:E:\Sources\install.wim
- BOTH options FAIL for the same reason!!!!
# DISM Log Errors:

# Grab the Windows update number from the package name:
"KB4601050"
#note: this update is not part of the ISO yet downloaded from website or built with Windows media creation tool.
# Download the package from the MS Update Catalog:
https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=4601050
# Upon trying to install, you will get a message that says your system does not qualify for this package.
# note: The Issue is "KB4601050" does not install by default on Intel-based systems. This is why it is ignored by the Windows Update and DISM tool when doing a "/RestoreHealth"
# To get around the automatic installer saying "NO" do the following:
1. use 7zIp to extract the MSU file into a folder. (right-click and extract to...)
2. find the largest CAB file and rename it something manageable like "KB4601050"
3. Copy the file to a root folder on your OS drive. (c:/packages/...)
4. from a CMD (admin) prompt install the package:
dism /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:"PATH\TO\CAB"
#Now perform a "/RestoreHealth"
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
If it completes continue to the next step.
If it fails again, verify logs and see if the same or different package is missing, and repeat the process.
# Reboot the computer.
# Perform Standard Windows update check and install. (It should complete properly now)
