    OK, I'm leaving it for another day.

    If it continues to stall, I will remove it.

    EDIT: @MS_User, if you don't mind me asking, what update was it?

    Strange that you got those updates after updating to 22621.1413.

    I got them before doing so, long before, like in February.

    Do you try update it by manual? do you got error code 0x8002002?

    I got the problem before, so I switched to third-party anti-virus.

    No, I haven't.

    Actually, I am using a third party antivirus program, but it's curious in that before KB5023706, Defender always updates through Windows Updates.

    I can live without Defender, but I can't be certain if I can live without Cumulative Updates too.

    All right, well, if I do have trouble downloading Cumulative Updates like Defender Updates, I'll get back.

    Thanks!

    Do you still get Defender updates now, @MS_User?

    OK, after all that bulls**t, I'm going to wait until next Monday to remove the current version and put in the newer cumulative update and see if that changes anything.

    If not, I change Insider Channels.

    EDIT: Pity about Angel Faith. She was so lovely. Oh well, that's what spammers deserve and i was stupid enough to believe she was going to contribute to the issue.

    Well, the solution was to wipe my hard drive, or should I say, "a" solution.

    Thanks for nothing, guys! :)

    OK, problem solved.
