Windows 10: Errors in Event Viewer: EapHost, Event ID 2002

My computer seemed to be running more slowly after the Creators update, so I went into the error viewer and found a ton of errors with the source EapHost, Event ID 2002. From Googling around, I found that this error can be caused by leftover keys from Cisco software, so I went ahead and deleted two of the keys referred to in the error logs, and the errors associated with those keys stopped popping up. However, there's a third error that keeps popping up:

Skipping: Eap method DLL path validation failed. Error: typeId=21, authorId=311, vendorId=0, vendorType=0

The trouble is that this doesn't give me enough information to figure out which key I need to delete. It refers me to a node in the registry called WLANProfileCreationUXAuth. There are six subfolders under that one, and some of them contain keys that I can't delete. (Stupidly, I tried, but the system wouldn't let me.)

What I'm wondering is this: how can I figure out which of the specific keys I need to delete? None of them refer to Cisco, as far as I can see.

Wireless adapter issues after installing KB3106932 and KB3105210

Geethu,

Further to this problem on examination of Event Viewer I see multiple Event Id 2002 with a source of EAPHost.

My research reveals that "The EAP error indicates a registry or missing/corrupt file issue that usually manifests itself in a problem with wireless networking. It may be a simple matter of re-registering a DLL or finding/replacing a missing/corrupt file
(hence the 'DLL path name validation failed').

There are none of these errors before KB3109632 was installed.

Can you help...

Vince

Have you looked in Event Viewer Application log for the error?
