Hi lemmyu,

I am Vijay, an Independent Advisor. I am here to work with you on this problem.

Go to the folder - C:\Windows\System32

Open Notepad > Put following in this Notepad file

WScript.Quit

Save this file as StartupCheck.vbs (Make sure that you have selected All files in Save as type: box while saving otherwise it will append .txt at the end which you will have to remove)

Reboot your PC

The error will go away

Hi lemmyu

Open File Explorer

On the View Ribbon temporarily turn on 'file name extensions '

Leave that File Explorer window open

On your Desktop, right click and create a new text file and add this text to that file:

WScript.Quit

Save that text file, then rename it to (change the txt files extension to vbs):

StartupCheck.vbs

Open File Explorer

Go to C:\Windows\System32

Move that StartupCheck.vbs file into that folder

That's it, restart your PC and that annoyance will be gone . . .
