    Hi,

    Thank you for using Windows 10.

    I suggest you to perform SFC scan
    and check.

    System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files. Refer
    to the link:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929833

    I would also like to inform you that there are chances that your computer is infected with virus/malware. So I would suggest you to download and run the
    Microsoft Safety Scanner.

    Microsoft Safety Scanner which is a free Scanner downloadable security tool that provides on-demand scanning and helps remove viruses, spyware, and other malicious software. It works with your existing antivirus software. Refer to the link below:

    Safety Scanner - Windows Defender Security Intelligence

    Disclaimer: Data or files which are infected by malware might be beyond cleaning and have to be deleted entirely to maintain the integrity of your system, which means there might be a potential for data loss.

    Let us know the results and feel free to write for further help and we’ll be more than happy to assist.

    Have a nice day.
