Is there a manual download for Windows 10 version 20H2 when we receive an install error?

My laptop started the installations of Windows 10 version 20H2 on 4/21/2021 and about half way through the install, it stopped and gave me error code 0xc1900223 and said it would try again at a later time, but never did. At the Settings Home screen there is always a yellow symbol with Attention Needed under Windows Update, but when I go to Windows Update to click update Windows my computer has already done it and it is up to date, but when I look at the update history it still is not the 20H2 version. I am not hooked up to any network, I do not use VPN or Linux. My laptop is HP Envy. I use wifi at home and I am a simple home user. My laptop runs Windows 10 Home version 1909.

    I have not done the upgrade yet. I have waited because in Windows Update screen in Settings it says feature update to Windows 10, version 2004 was suppose to be installed last May 2020 and it wasn't. I did not block it. I have never blocked any updates. How do I get this update? The way I understand it I need this update before I upgrade to 20H2 and this may be the reason why I had the error when 20H2 tried to install. I have Windows 10 Home, version 1909, OS build 18363.1500 if that helps.

    No, not needed. You can download and install the 20H2 upgrade to bring your 1909 current.

    One more question. Do I need the Media Creation Tool for 20H2 setup? I saw that download on the same page the link you provided. I downloaded it just in case. I am ready now to upgrade. I had other business to take care of first before I upgraded, that is why it has taken me so long to do this.
