No, it still would be trial and error, there are some drivers that would be more common than others but in the end it is trial and error.

Please filter the CBS Log in this way:

Press the Windows key > Write "CMD" (Without the quotation marks) > Right click on "Command prompt" in the search results. > Run as administrator.
Copy "findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log >"%userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt" (Without the quotation marks) into the prompt of the command prompt. > ENTER.
Upload the "sfcdetails.txt" that is now on your desktop.

Go here and download the "All in One Runtimes" package. (Description)
Run the installer.
Disable the "Java Runtime Environment 8 Update 251" from the pre-settings
Install all VC++ runtimes.
Restart the PC. (a real "Restart" not just shutting down and start again.)

Then:

Press the Windows Key and "i" at the same time > Apps.
Scroll down until you see "Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 (Or 2017 or 2019) Redistributable"
Uninstall everything from 2015 - 2019 (Only 2015 to 2019, leave all older versions intact.)
Restart the PC.
Go here and download the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable" packages. (Both, the x86 and the x64 versions)
Install both versions x86 and the x64 running the installer as Administrator (Right click the installer > Run as an Administrator)
Reboot > Test
