Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand that you’re facing issues when accessing an application, and I certainly appreciate your efforts in trying to resolve the issue.

We will certainly look into this for you.

For further clarity on the issue, please respond to the questions below:

1.     Which build version of Windows 10 are you using currently?

2.     Are you aware of any changes made to the PC prior to which you weren’t facing this issue?

3.     Which application are you trying to access?

Refer the article Which version of Windows operating system am I running?

Meanwhile, I would suggest you to perform Clean Boot on the PC and see if you’re able to access the application. Refer the article How to perform a clean boot in Windows

Performing a clean boot will start the computer with minimal set of drivers and programs, to determine whether a background program is causing the issue. Some of the Startup programs will not load after performing a clean boot on the computer. However, that functionality will return when you reset the computer to start normally after finishing the troubleshooting.

If the application launches fine after performing Clean Boot, then please refer the section How to determine what is causing the problem after you do a clean bootto identify the root cause of the issue.

Note: Please refer the section Reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshootingto boot the computer in to normal mode after troubleshooting
