This error will not go away I kid you not. After increasing my recovery partition to 1GB and yet still there, ive already digged into the web deep enough and yet not even working. And no, I don't use bitlocker, just please get this annoyance off.

These 2 updates are the reason holding me back from updating windows properly

WinRE is now updated.

Your earlier output posted today.

The latest output.

It's good now.

You can update the WinREVersion registry value here if it's not already updated.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion

Hopefully, WU will no longer offer that update.

    Please try these commands:

    md C:\Recovery\WindowsRE 
    
    attrib -s -h -r \\?\GLOBALROOT\device\harddisk0\partition4\Recovery\WindowsRE\Winre.wim 
    
    copy  \\?\GLOBALROOT\device\harddisk0\partition4\Recovery\WindowsRE\winre.wim C:\Recovery\WindowsRE\ 
    
    reagentc /disable
    
    reagentc /setreimage /path C:\Recovery\WindowsRE 
    
    reagentc /enable 
    
    reagentc /info 
    

    Post the output.

    It's moved to the C drive. Please see of you can install the update.

    If it still doesn't succeed, try extracting a new winre.wim from the Windows ISO. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-update/windows-10-updating-problems/9f1e8504-6461-4991-ad82-fcf64566a524?messageId=31b14158-c07e-4b87-be94-f66117f30c8d
