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!! Your reply helps me a lot. I followed all solutions in this forum and always lost a step. Finally I found the problem that I also installed LDPlayer. Now I got the latest Windows update. Thank you for all responses in this forum. :)

    I tried looking in that *_APPRAISER_HumanReadable.xml file, and found nothing.

    However, I did a global search for VirtualBox in my C drive, and found a file named that in a folder for LDPlayer (an android emulator for playing games on my PC). Uninstalling that did the trick.
