I have tried numerous times to upgrade from Win10 to Win 11. While the download is successful, the install fails with error message: 0x80070002. Other upgrades have worked fine - it is the upgrade from 10 to 11 that does not.

See if this video is of help to you:
How to Fix Windows 10/11 Update Error 0x80070002 [Tutorial] - YouTube
If not, try doing an in-place update from W10>W11 by clicking on the W11 Installation Assistant button at the link below (1st option).

Hello Paul,
Thank you so much for your reply. I did follow the YouTube Tutorial you referenced, but unfortunately both recommendations on that tutorial did not help - error 0x80070002 issue is still there. I will try your suggestion of in-place update from W10>W11 next. Will let you know how it goes. Thanks again.
