    Hi. I'm David, and I'm happy to help you.


    I suggest doing the following:

    Use the system file checker to repair possible corrupted or missing system files.

    1. Press "Ctrl + Shift + Esc" to open Task Manager;
    2. Select "Run new task";
    3. In the "Open" field, type cmd, check "Create this task with administrative privileges", and click Ok;
    4. Run the following commands at the Command Prompt one at a time:
    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth
    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup
    sfc /scannow
    

    Note: Pay attention to the results of the commands to make sure that the procedure was completed successfully or if there was a problem. If you have any problems, let me know the error that was shown.

    1. Restart the PC and see if the problem is resolved.

    If it persists, follow the procedure below.

    1. Press "Ctrl + Shift + Esc" to open Task Manager;
    2. Select "Run new task";
    3. In the "Open" field, type powershell, check "Create this task with administrative privileges", and click Ok;
    4. Type or paste the following command and press Enter:
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers Microsoft.Windows.ShellExperienceHost | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
    
    • Note if the command will run correctly or will have a red message.
    • If you get a red message, you will need to kill the "Windows Shell Experience Host" process in Task Manager and run the command again.
    1. Restart the PC.

    If the problem persists, please let me know, and I will provide another method.


    Feel free to ask back any questions.
