Microsoft warns that you won't receive Windows 10 May 2020 Update, if you have Memory Integrity enabled. It is a known issue in this release, and you can quickly resolve it if you need to get version 2004.

Starting with Windows 10 Build 17093, you can configure Core isolation Memory integrity using Windows Defender Security Center. The Core isolation feature provides a number of virtualization-based security options to protect core parts of your computer. Memory Integrity is part of the Core isolation feature that prevents attacks from inserting malicious code into high-security processes. Let's see how to enable this useful feature.

For Windows 10 version 2004, Microsoft noted the following.

An incompatibility has been found with certain display drivers and Windows 10, version 2004 when memory integrity protection is enabled.
