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.

    Had the same issue. 

    A detail, I had 2 VirtualBox installations, 4.13 and 6.1

    Updater tool showed 2 installations, the 4.13 and one without version

    The 6.1 was not a problem, 4.13 uninstall was clean, but updater stopped requesting VirtualBox (no version listed) to be manually uninstalled.

    Found LDBOXDRV.SYS on the registry and also C:\Program Files\dnplayerext2 directory fully populated.

    Erased all, erased registry entries and had no more VirtualBox stops.

    Update is installing at the moment. 

    Thanks all for your comments here.
