Hi, Just letting you know that I can't really help here, for a few reasons.
Here's some general feedback: I don't think we can support using Tor Browser to auto-update a relay. It seems really complicated. As we've spoken about previously, you might be better using a package manager, like Chocolatey: https://chocolatey.org/search?q=Tor (If you need help using Chocolatey, please find a Chocolatey-specific help forum. I don't think anyone on this list has experience.) I can't see your full logs in the screenshots. Please paste them in your email, or use a pastebin like https://paste.debian.net I'm also struggling to keep up with your emails, because you keep sending duplicate emails. That's a bit confusing.
