I run the updater on a scheduled task daily, I checked the logs tonight and saw that it was getting stuck on the first update of 6, Github Desktop.
Tonight I killed the process for the update, and it moved to Paint.Net, which also froze ,so I killed that too. It then downloaded and updated the remaining 4 updates successfully.

I'm giving up at this point.
I've disabled PMPC Home Updater from checking for GitHub Desktop..
It is still failing to update Paint.net
Attached updated log file with exit error code.
The installer of Paint.NET must be corrupted because its original size is around 62MB NOT 10MB as I see it in your screenshot, to fix this you need to remove it from this location so it can re-download: C:\Program Files\PMPC\PatchMyPCITProCache
Not sure about GitHub Desktop, maybe it's a corrupted installer too.
