Hi MinnesotaMidget,

• Which current version or build of Windows device are you using? To know, press Windows + R to open the Run window. Type winver and press Enter. A new window will open showing the version and build number of your Windows device.
• What were the recent changes made on your computer before you experienced this issue?
• What troubleshooting steps have you done so far on your end?
• Can we have a screenshot of this error message?
• Does your hard drive encrypted or not?
• What are the anti-virus programs you're using?
• What is the exact make and model of your computer?
• How often do you get this error message?
• Lastly, can you give us a walkthrough or a feedback on the activity you've performing that resulting to receive this error message?

Note: If you have other anti-viruses installed on your computer, disable them all completely and enable Windows Defender only. This could get your programs to a conflict with your operating system’s own security features.
