Open Command Prompt as Administrator and type the following commands followed by hitting the Enter key:

sfc /scannow

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

If you have a restore point from before the problem started, you could try reverting to it.

Reset Windows will reinstall Windows while keeping your personal files.
