windows undoes changes after it updates

So my system is a windows 10 home 22h2 and every time it tries to update, it lasts 2 or more hours updating then when it finishes it says "undoing changes made to your computer" in a black screen and then when I go to windows update page to see what happened they give me this error code: 0xc1900101

What i've tried already: doing sfc/scannow, disabling windows firewall (I don't have any other antivirus), I tried running setupdiag.exe with the prompts however somehow it does not create any log file so I can't see what went wrong (maybe I don't used it correctly). I searched the meaning of the error code it gave me and it said there's an incompatible driver.

I recently changed my motherboard and my processor, does it have anything to do with it?? Should I try to update my pc using these parts again? I still have them. My old processor was a i5 4440 3.10 Ghz and my new one is a i5-4590 3.30Ghz and my two motherboards are not from "mainstream" brands like Asus or Gigabyte but they're not the same brands.

Also, another little detail I need to mention is when the update finished the file setupdiag.exe appeared out of nowhere in my downloads folder but it still did not created any log file. Help!!! it's the fourth time the system tries to update but no success!!!

    Any idea what the error code was? You can check the Windows Update history and see the most recent error reported under "quality updates".

    Also, is the 22H2 feature update still being offered in Windows Update?

    Do you want an unsupported upgrade?
