Hello,

I had the same problem searching around for days.

The cause was NOT a installed / uninstalled Virtualbox BUT a portable one on the filesystem :-(

In my case i opened C:$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\Panther{RANDOMSTRING}_APPRAISER_HumanReadable.xml

and search for 'T_ANY_FMC_BlockingApplication" Value="TRUE"'

which found:

<Property Name="LowerCaseLongPathUnexpanded" Value="%programfiles(x86)%\linuxlive usb creator\tools\virtualbox\portable-virtualbox\app64\virtualbox.exe" Ordinal="1" />

Removing this files let me install 20H2.

    Thank you, I realized that it was also LDplayer that prevented the update to work.  Removing it solve the issue.

    I needed to do this too.

    To be safe, I uninstalled Bluestacks as well.  Neither of them worked for me anyway

    Windows search can't find it. It's pretty weak in some situations. Windows isn't perfect.
