FOUND A SOLUTION. Hope it works for everyone having this problem.

Run the WU Troubleshooter:
Settings>System>Troubleshoot>Other troubleshooters>Windows Update>Run

Let it run, even if it takes some time. Mine took about 8 min to resolve.
When you get the popup window saying things were resolved, just close it.

Now go back to Windows Update. Click on Pause for 1 week.
Now click on Resume Updates, and voilá! All resolved!

This worked for me as well. I'm on Build 22621.1265.

Tried it. Didn't work. Oh, well. I'll just wait for MS to figure out things.

This is interesting... Yesterday I posted that all the Intel Extension drivers that the update couldn't install were shown in Update History as installed (twice). This is the first time I looked at History since I got it fixed, and all those driver updates are gone.

To check if the solution posted by Asturias, checked my AMD based processor second computer and Windows Update worked fine. Rebooted my main notebook and checked Windows Update without issues.

Seems it has nothing to do with AMD components. So we're fine.
Ran WU 3 times today at various hours and all is now OK for me.

I would suggest something regarding the solution I provided earlier (and below):
Clean all your temp files, cookies, etc. Then restart your PC.
Run the Troubleshooter 2-3 times, restart your PC and run WU to see if this solves the problem. It worked for me.

Since I'm new here, & to Windows 11. After I shut down last night & turned on this laptop this morning. All the errors were gone? I cannot reproduce the WU errors we had last night. They were gone this morning! Is there a fix? Or is it an MS issue that did this? Or do I need to make a move on this pc? thanks for your time... Cheers

Both my machines have fixed themselves now, I'm guessing by MS. Someone posted an article that amused me on the other thread that Microsoft knows all about it and is down-playing it as an insignificant issue. They said it was harmless.

Anyone know why i am getting this errors?

Apparently it's a known problem and can safely be ignored.....

According to dozens of posts on Feedback Hub, Windows 11 driver update is failing with an error code “0x80070103”....

...Microsoft has confirmed that it knows about the Windows Update failure, which it describes as a problem that “shouldn’t impact your general usage”.

“It’s showing this error because it’s attempting to install something that’s already installed. Beyond showing the error message, this shouldn’t impact your general usage,” a Microsoft official noted in a post spotted by Windows Latest.
