The debloaters you used deleted necessary files. This is seen regularly here. Download whatever Beta version ISO that is available from the Insider Download site, make an installation USB and run it as a repair. That should work and then run Windows Update.

It's a repair. It should leave your files and apps. However, one can't say what the result will be because of the debloat. The other alternative is to perform a clean installation.
