Hi, thank you for replying, in that case, kindly follow the steps below:

Manually install the Cumulative update KB5021234 first:

https://catalog.s.download.windowsupdate.com/d/...

Then do a clean boot:

A “clean boot” starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs, so that you can determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program.

- In the search box on the taskbar, type msconfig and select System Configuration from the results.

- On the Services tab of System Configuration, select Hide all Microsoft services, and then select Disable all.

- On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select Open Task Manager.

- Under Startup in Task Manager, for each startup item, select the item and then select Disable.

- Close Task Manager.

- On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select OK. When you restart the computer, it's in a clean boot environment.

Restart the PC and check.

Note: If the same issue persists, I suggest posting the matter to insider forums, as you are in advanced build, other people from Windows insider will take a look into that or possibly experience the same issue before and have a ready fix.
