I decrypted my Drive just so I wouldn't get stuck with my files encrypted. I am trying to see if anyone had such an issue or if there's anyway know how to deal with such a problem?
I already tried removing the latest updates but nothing changed.
I've seen similar stories where people had the same issue and went to a support call with MS and of course MS blamed the manufacturer for it.
Any help is appreciated

Or boot to Safe Mode, revert the system from the most recent Restore Point made before the problem occurred, reboot with the network disconnected, then disable automatic Updates.
The most recent backup is yesterday, The problem started 2 days ago
I also tried uninstalling all the updates this month but it didn't work either now my TPM driver is useless and randomly I get BSOD.
Not seen here (all have that update already, many have TPM 2.0 with Bitlocker active).
What type of TPM is that, discrete or firmware TPM?
What manufacturer?
What TPM details does powershell (get-tpm) reveal?

Well now, it's showing nothing since driver is not recognized at all. I am not certain what is the discrete TPM but it's embedded in the Motherboard and I can see it and enable/disable from the BIOS.
Before these mentioned updates I have no problem at all, After the updates I noticed my Windows Hello Pin got lost and it asked me to reset it again then I realized the TPM driver 2.0 was invalid with code 10.
As for the manufacturer, it doesn't say anything on the BIOS page. could it be Aptio ? I will try to look at the chip to see the manufacturer.
TPM from powershell give these details.

Discrete TPM: removable module
Firmware TPM: part of the firmware, like for example "Intel PTT"
Could you uninstall that upgrade, reboot, see if the driver works again and then use get-tpm?
I tried that multiple times, No go but at least the Memory Management BSOD stops when I remove this update.
Interesting thing is that not just TPM stopped, now even Virtual Box says no Virtualization Capabilities supported on my Device which I had over 20 VMs on it and was working fine also before these updates.
The TPM is indeed firmware as it's fixed on the board. thing is my laptop is of a not so popular brand and has no recent BIOS update.
I think that even reinstalling Windows 10 wouldn't help since eventually I will have to come to install these updates.
In the event viewer related to Device Manager (Trusted Platform Module 2.0) I see couple of errors sourced from Kernel-PnP and UserPnp

What you could do for a test: boot windows2go (USB stick based windows), just for reading out the component info.
Or provide the hardware ID as device manager shows it
Or provide the laptop model.
Laptop Model is Monster Abra A7 V9.2
On the TPM it says the following:
ACPI\VEN_MSFT&DEV_0101
ACPI\MSFT0101
*MSFT0101
Hmm, cannot find many detaileds specs about that notebook's TPM at https://www.monsternotebook.com.tr/abra/monster-abra-a7-v9-2/ I'll leave you with a screenshot showing some info about a working system here with the same hardware ID. Here, It's an fTPM (=Intel PTT):

Fine. You should have an eye on the MS forums and post it in case no-one else opens a thread about it. It remains unclear if the conditions ftpm + device guard + new OS update are responsible alone or if something else is behind it. Could be true for some fTPMs, but not for all. We haven't widely enabled device guard here.

Windows 10 is a personal computer operating system featuring the "universal application architecture" (UAP); apps can be designed to run across multiple devices with nearly identical code, including PCs, tablets, smartphones, embedded systems, Xbox One, Surface Hub and HoloLens. Windows 10 also includes a virtual desktop system, a window and desktop management feature called Task View, the Microsoft Edge web browser, support for fingerprint and face recognition login, voice-based search (Cortana), new security features for enterprise environments, and DirectX 12 and WDDM 2.0 to improve the operating system's graphics capabilities for games.
