Hello, I would run a scan with system file checker. To do so, try the following instructions:-- click on windows orb-- type
cmd
in search box-- in results, highlight cmd.exe -- right click on it and select
Run as administrator
-- once command prompt opens, type the following:
sfc /scannow
-- let scan finish-- make sure to have your installation disk handy.
