Windows 10: "Page Fault in Non-Paged Area" - major Windows update fails

Windows has been thrashing my HDD for a week now bugging me to install the big update. Every month I update my PC with no issues. I finally decided last night to let the big update install. It failed several times at 88% through the normal "windows update" method. I did some research and downloaded Windows10Upgrade9252.exe direct from Microsoft. I ran it with administrator privileges and it started the upgrade. Took almost 2 hours, then said it needed to reboot a few times while it finished applying the updates.

The update seemed to be going well, and rebooted a couple times to continue. Suddenly around 64% it reboots and I get a "Page Fault in Non-Paged Area" BSOD. It reboots, and goes to the motherboard UEFI screen with seemingly no settings applied. I hit the power button, and it reboots and says it will try to recover the update and try again, and then I get another "Page Fault in Non-Paged Area" BSOD. Same thing again with the UEFI screen. After 3 times it says it's undoing changes. 15 minutes later my PC is back the way it was before the update.

I tried reading up on "Page Fault in Non-Paged Area" relating to updates, and saw several mentions of possible hardware memory issues, or pagefile issues. I ran Windows memory diagnostic tool and my memory is fine. I ran sfc/scannow and it's fine. I read a suggestion to try disabling the pagefile, so I disabled it (it was set to system managed). I then tried again tonight, first using the normal method, and then again with Windows10Upgrade9252.exe, and the same exact thing happened tonight. After 2+ hours, I got the same exact BSOD and UEFI screens again. Luckily it undid the changes successfully again.

Meanwhile, every bloody time I turn on my PC now, "Modern Setup Host" thrashes my HDD for 10 minutes, preparing my PC for the update again.

How do I either get this update to go through, or stop "Modern Setup Host" from taking over my PC every time I start my PC. I have tons of software configured exactly how I need it so doing a clean install is not a possibility right now, especially with the holidays upon us. What could be causing this update to fail?

Creator Update Paging in Non-Paged Area


I did the Creator update for Windows 10 today, and since then I've been getting consistent BSOD crashes due to page fault in non-paged area, where I was getting no BSODs before. I'd like to fix the situation and not just do a rollback, but if that's the best step I'll go ahead and do that.
