You can imagine how many bug there are that it currently going unnoticed and or still being "fixed" this is one of them. like mention it seem that the solution we are coming up with are not working im going to release the question to have another advisor take a look if that ok with you

Answer 2

Hi Tamir

Please ... I have tried everything I can think of and also everything that Co-pilot has suggested but I still have the problem. You can justifiably assume that I am asking you to look a bit deeper into this problem. The simplest of solutions is often the best but, in this case, the simple solution just doesn't cut it.

Thanks

HI my name is Tamir, I'm independent advisor With Microsoft, normally to fix this error is to closes all the tab and software you have open and try it that way, the other option is just to restart your computer that will fix it and close any programs that might be open in the background
