Can't change kernel, updates hang and fail

Windows on this box got borked so I got rid of it; but it had also totally screwed over the linux installations, too, so I've had to start over.

I got Manjaro Cinnamon installed, but now it tells me I've successfully upgraded the kernel from 4.19 into 5.x, but nothing has happened - after rebooting I still have 4.19.

Software update is also hanging for ages and then saying the transaction hooks failed.

Code:error hook /usr/share/libalpm/hooks/60-mkinitcpio-remove.hook line 2: invalid value

error hook /usr/share/libalpm/hooks/90-mkinitcpio-install.hook line 2: invalid valueWhat info can I give to help me solve this,pls?latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=M4NBzNr9i5I:VUMoUrdSq0s:F7zBnMy latest?i=M4NBzNr9i5I:VUMoUrdSq0s:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=M4NBzNr9i5I:VUMoUrdSq0s:gIN9vFwM4NBzNr9i5I
