Hello,
Suggest you to run System File Checker scan:
Search for 'command prompt' using Cortana or Windows Search.
From results, right click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
Type sfc /scannow command and press Enter key.
Let the command complete and then reboot the machine.
If issue still persists, perform clean boot:

Certain software could cause this error and the best is to uninstall the software you don’t use.
