Unable to update past Windows 10 Home Version 1909

[TPJohnst]

I haven't been able to run updates since 5/2020.  Every time I try to "check for updates," I get the message "You're device is missing important security and quality fixes."  I've tried the following without any luck: using the update troubleshooter, running Windows 10 Update Assistant (got error code 0x80070652), ran HP Performance Tune Up Check (stopped at 61% during system file check), ran HP Operating System Check (nothing came up), and tried updating BIOS using device manager (found that “best drivers for device are already installed”), but then supposedly was able to update BIOS using HP Support Assistant.  I'd appreciate any tips, or suggestions.  Thanks!

(2) Backup all important documents/pictures/videos/... to external USB hard disk !

Use the official Microsoft method:
