- Do you get this error message while, using one particular application?
No. It first appeared after I did the Windows Updates. It appears after start up before I open any applications or software.
- Apart from installing Windows Updates, do remember making any other changes in the computer?
I did install several programs but the error appeared before I did any of that. As mentioned above, it first appeared after doing Windows Update.
- Is your computer connected to a Domain Network?
It's connected to wifi and there are other devices also connected to that wifi. But I don't think it's connected to a domain network.
When starting in Safe Mode the error did not appear after start up.
When performing a clean book the error also did not appear after start up.
