It also keeps saying im offline when i'm not. It says I'm connected to my wifi.

I also am seeing problems in the start menu, some icons aren't showing.

I can't connect to my output Audio.

I can't run command as an admin.

I have no idea what happened, I started my computer this morning like normal and as soon as i logged in, it started giving errors

    Thanks, Zoe. All the updates are successful.

    Could you please do this since there are multiple issues.

    Go to Settings > System > Recovery > Fix problems with Windows Update > Install now.

    If it throws the same error, let me know.
