Windows 10: Microsoft 10 2004 - Corona version

About a week ago I have been bombarded with the messages that the servicing 18-months period of my build of Windows 10 1809 has expired and I need to install a new build 2004. Build 1809 was pretty stable and everything worked fine, but I have decided that no harm to install a new build. How I was wrong! With installing new build 2004, the Windows 10 nightmare has begun: constant BSODs, installing updates that crashed my computer regularly, uninstalling updates, debugging, reinstalling drivers, crashes, crashes, crashes. New version 2004 was simply a disaster. One week of not being able to use a computer, trying to debug here and there, using tools such as Reparo, Tweaking, trying to repair Windows files, registry, everything. In the end, I have just realized that it is simply a corona version of Windows 10 destroying my computer. I've now rolled back to 1809 the last October release, paused updates for 35 days and voila! Everything works like a charm, no more crashes and everything works like it should. My suggestion is that this corona infected build should be immediately quarantined and removed from updates once and for all.

Microsoft Money 2004 on Windows 10

I have been using Microsoft Money 2004 ever since it came out. I have gone through all of the suggested fixes, but they pertain to msmoney 2003 or later. None of the suggested fixes works and I do not have Sunset version installed and it states that I
should not try to install the Sunset Version after 2011. I have seen that the fixes work on other versions of msmoney, but even after I changed the registry key to 9.11.10240.0, I could not install Internet Explorer 6 because it wouldn't install. My computer
is HP ENVY 700 series which runs 64 bit. My money program worked in Windows 7, 8, and 8.1, but will not even open in Wndows 10. At first I received a notice to install internet explorer 6, but I ran the compatible program and then tried Run this program as
Adminstrator, and Windows 7, then Windows 8, and even tried Windows XP, noting helps. All of my finances since 2004 are in that program, and I cannot integrate the msmoney.exe or any files into another type of money program. I'm at my wits' end. Please
somebody help me with this proglem, I am 70 years old and I did try using some of the Widows Apps, and am lost. How can msmoney 2003 work, but not msmoney 2004?
