22H2 update fails, blue screen, rollback

[MikeBlount]

2020 Spectre X360-14 showed 22H2 update is available.  When I installed it, it restarted and got to the spinning circle HP splash screen, stayed there for about five minutes, and then gave a blue screen and restarted again.  The second restart apparently did an automatic rollback to 21H2.

I paid for the upgrade to Windows 11 Professional and have BitLocker turned on, but I don't know if that may be causing the issue.  That's the only thing I can think of that would be different from other identically configured computers.  I'll try suspending BitLocker if 22H2 pops back up again.
