You seem to be very sure that the Windows updates cause your memory problems, which happened more than once. You did not say which version of Windows you are using, but I'm guessing Windows 10?
I've never had this problem myself, or heard of users having a problem with memory recognition after a Windows update. Windows updates can range from a simple update to the Windows Defender data, to a new build version of Windows itself.
Do you know you can remove or "rollback" Windows updates? If one or more updates were really the problem, then removing the updates would fix the problem, right?
When you have the memory problem, did you ever try clearing the UEFI/BIOS?
Any time you change the amount of memory you use, whether adding, removing, or moving the DIMMs around, you should always clear the UEFI/BIOS before you start the PC again.
What UEFI/BIOS version are you using?
