Is it a VMWare VM?
How much RAM is it has?

No VM / Docker
Win 10 Baremetal / binary
32GB RAM and around ~65% usage just before the exception occurred

In other words - you need to check RAM. Perhaps you just need to power off, extract modules, clean contacts both modules (with a rubber eraser for example) and the sockets on the motherboard, then insert them back.
