WaaSMedicSvc - failed to read description - Error Code 2

Hello All,

I'm hoping someone can tell me if I have to be worried about this / endangered updates, or if I can ignore it.

In case of th former ... how to fix it?

When I got there in Services, first it was stopped. I started it but the error note remained, even after reboot.

I already ran update troubleshooter and SFC and Dism ... with no change.

BTW- updates function normally, just sometimes seems to take a long time checking.

On my personal machine at home / identical ... same thing.

Win11 Pro, latest version and updates, 23H2

Any information is highly appreciated.

Thanks
