Windows 10: Help me understand Minidumps and "kernel mode heap corruption" blue screen

Decided today to install feature update (1903) on my pc, failed to reach 100% 2 times (with error mentioned in title) before I decided to closed all apps I was using and let Windows Update do its thing, 3rd time reached 100% and asked for reboot, but same error, at least this time it wasn't installing over again just asking for reboot.


Quick search indicated it had something to do with graphics card driver(mine is Nvidia) I have no idea what these numbers mean (from .dmp file):

KERNEL_MODE_HEAP_CORRUPTION (13a)
The kernel mode heap manager has detected corruption in a heap.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000012, Type of corruption detected
Arg2: 0000000000000380, Address of the heap that reported the corruption
Arg3: ffffac09ba29a000, Address at which the corruption was detected
Arg4: 0000000000000000

Is "0000000000000012" related to gpu or drivers? I someone could explain these numbers I'd appreciate it.


Anyway, the driver was already up to date but downloaded it again and did a "clean install" having selected only main driver and PhysX, deleting all other plugins. Installation went ok but "nvidia update core" resulted as failed which I've never seen happen before on my pc or any other.


Closed installer, rebooted and the update installation started this time. Went on fine and 15 minutes later it's done without errors. Graphics driver is gone now however, only PhysX is present but installed it again without issues this time.


Could someone explain or direct me somewhere that can help me make sense of these numbers? For future reference as well as personal interest, thank you.

Help: KERNEL MODE HEAP CORRUPTION

Hi,

I have encountered BSOD recently and the screen shows KERNEL MODEL HEAP CORRUPTION. I searched through the website and noticed that I need to attach the minidump files. The onedrive link is:

Minidump.rar

Is there something I could do to fix this? Thank you for your help!
