Windows 10: HELP! - 1909 to 2004 update BSOD on Restart

I have read all the threads I can find, but nothing answers my issue. When I upgrade either through Windows Update or manually or with the Windows 10 Update Assistant, everything seems to go well updating from 1909 to 2004 until the time the system reboots. Each time I get a BSOD screen saying "Stop code: System Thread Exception Not Handled" but with out any error codes or indication as to what caused the system to throw the BSOD and not finish the update.


I have updated all my drivers that I can, especially the NVIDIA graphics card, removed all peripherals except the keyboard and mouse, uninstalled anti malware especially Malwarebytes, and tried all other suggestions offered online. Nothing has worked as the system throws the BSOD then reverts back to ver 1909 without doing the 2004 update.


I have tried looking in Event Viewer, but nothing there seems to indicate the cause. Is there some error log file that I I could look at to find the cause? If so, where would I find it, as I have looked endlessly to no avail.


Thanks in advance for any helpful comments.


My System:

64 bit Windows 10 Education currently ver 1909 with all updates

i5-8600K 3.60 GHz CPU

16.0 GB Dual channel Ram memory

ASUS Z370-P Motherboard

AMI BIOS version 0409

1023MB NVIDIA GeForce GT 610 Graphics card

1 GB PNY SSD main drive with 600 GB free

Realtek High Def Audio

Windows 10 2004 update fails to install - Memory Management?

1. Go here
https://www.catalog.update.microsoft...px?q=KB4576751
check on installed updates in your computer that you have the latest servicing stack for - presumably 1909

If not download and install from the catalogue link - 64based update - second on list.

2. Then try update to 2004 after complete shutdown
Step 1: Open Start menu, select Power button.

Step 2: Press and hold the Shift key on keyboard, while clicking on Shut down, and then release the Shift key to perform a full shutdown.

OR as you may know a restart is a complete shutdown.

IF the 2004 update is offered on updates as the item - feature update to 2004 when you are ready etc.
The make sure beforte you click that - that you have clicked search for updates and install all - before trying 2004.

If that does not work clean boot it and then try the update

1909 to 2004 upgrade

The 20H2 iso is available for download (see News section), so that naturally 'includes' 2004. This is a step preceding 20H2 becoming available by Windows Update in place of 2004; presently you'd be offered 2004 by WU then the 20H2 enablement package. All downloads are available following the relevant article in the News section.

It's an evolving scenario following the pattern of 1903/1909.
