Hello there,

    Hi Aditya, to remove the error, first download Autoruns:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns

    Unzip Autoruns64.exe, then right click and run as administrator

    In the Quick Filter box enter run.vbs

    You should see a task named Window Update

    Right click on this task and delete

    Restart the computer
