Thank you for letting me know. Please take your time.

The next step:

If the earlier steps didn’t resolve the issue, the next step would be to perform a Repair Upgrade from Windows Update. You can do this by following these steps:

> Go to Settings > System > Recovery.

> In "Fix problem using Windows Update", click "Reinstall now".

> This will download Repair Upgrade and reinstall Windows similar to an In-Place Upgrade, preserving your apps, files, and settings.

If you get any error messages or if issue persists, please let me know.
