Run steam.exe as admin, one time only and hope steam can fix itself.

Feel free to ask steam support why they have so many few steam user update own client.

ps.
All you can make sure all is update at that PC. ( BIOS and its drivers. )

You can also try check PC. ( google how to do. ) its more make sure own system dont have other issue, or MS can fix itself so update do its job.

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /Restorehealth
SFC /Scannow
chkdsk c:
chkdsk d:
chkdsk e:
chkdsk f:
chkdsk g:
chkdsk h:



ps.
Some old advice is reinstall steam over current steam, to fix whatever cause this.
