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.

    I have the exact same log and same issue too. I cannot access any of the files found (nor delete them), because the directories apparently does not exist. Looking in the "log.txt" generated, I noticed all paths are empty. (13 issues were found)

    For me it was an Android emulator called LDPlayer.  It seems that it also uses some version of VirtualBox.  Once I removed that as well, I was able to continue with the update.

    virtualbox.exe
