    Hi, thanks for the detailed information, as per checking and analyzing the event files you have, there are general errors on the event files, moreover, kindly follow the steps below for us to fix the issue:

    This issue is happening due to third-party services that is running in the background.

    Method 1. Do clean boot:

    A “clean boot” starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs, so that you can determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program.

    • In the search box on the taskbar, type msconfig and select System Configuration from the results.
    • On the Services tab of System Configuration, select Hide all Microsoft services, and then select Disable all.
    • On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select Open Task Manager.
    • Under Startup in Task Manager, for each startup item, select the item and then select Disable.
    • Close Task Manager.
    • On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select OK. When you restart the computer, it's in a clean boot environment.

    Troubleshooting reference: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/929135...

    If none will work from the above solution, I suggest doing an in-place upgrade wherein it will upgrade the device to the latest version and repair all issues without deleting any files.

    I understand the issue you have, nothing to worry I am here to help, and just to confirm can you still use the affected device? if so, we need to analyze the error, can you please check if you have minidump files on the PC so that we can further examine what is the root cause of the issue?

    Press Windows key + E (To open File Explorer)

    Click "This PC" > then follow the file path:

    C:\Windows\Minidump

    Copy the Minidump files and save them to another location like Desktop or Documents.

    Then please upload it to Cloud storage like OneDrive or any cloud storage you are using and please share the shareable link here.

    Then provide the shareable link by following the steps from this link: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/shar...

    Note: If you cannot see Minidump files, can you please check the System logs on the PC so that we can further examine what is the root cause of the issue?
