Windows 10 update error 0x80242fff

I was updating windows this morning and the PC froze @ 45%. Few seconds later, a blue screen surfaced with an inscription of "WATCHDOG VIOLATION blah blah blah". After restarting, I went back to continue the updates, some of the updates returned error reports, while a few updated successfully. A few restarts and retrials still couldn't resolve the error. How do I resolve this windows update error and this WATCHDOG nightmare? A screenshot of the error screen is attached.

Are the BSOD's persisting? If it was once, I would suggest ignoring it. Though you have tons of drivers that are >5 years old.

You will find the website of the manufacturers here:

WINDOWS UPDATES

Use the Following tutorial to  Reset Windows updates completely and check if it helps:

Reset Windows updates

Make sure to run the script as an administrator.


If the BSOD's persists then we would check the memory and enable driver verifier,but first reset windows updates.
