New Build Windows 10 freezing post latest updates (July 2020)

[Mike_Nine9]

After recent patches 7/15-7/16 were installed:

• KB4565627 (Can remove this, but didn't solve the issue)
• KB4565503 (Can't remove this)
• KB4566785 (Can't remove this)

My PC is freezing intermittently, it has only happened 4 times so far and every time it happens i can see when it happens as the clock in the task bar stops around the time i assume it locks up.

• I can move the mouse cursor, but nothing is responsive to the clicks.
• I can hit keys on the keyboard but after 3-4 key presses no response.
• The only way to recover is to hard reset the PC.

Other notes

• I ran Memtest for good measure, but no issues
• Switch to another set of ram, but same result

I don't have "KB4557957" as i have seen several posts about it causing a similar issue, but i do have KB4565503 which notes
