I opened Microsoft Store in the 'deactivate from S mode' and it said: 'Your windows is not running in S mode.' So, what am I supposed to do?
Cmd.exe wasn't found.

Always when I try to open command prompt, it doesn't work. It gives me an error that says: 'Windows can't find "cmd.exe". Please check if it has been spelled correctly and try again.'
I already tried:
1. Win + R. Then I searched both cmd & cmd.exe, same error.
2. Task manager. I clicked on new process, tried both cmd.exe & cmd, same error.
3. C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe. Same error.
I later checked my System32 folder and I do not have any file in it called 'cmd.exe'. How do I install it or put it back on my PC? I currently use a Windows 10 computer. Please help!
