Windows 10: File system error -1073741819

I have a problem with CCleaner not opening due to error message –C\Program Files\CCleaner\CCleaner 64.exe – File system error -1073741819. I contacted both CCleaner forum and tech support – both replied that it was a Windows 10 problem and suggested sites to fix the problem. Since this seems to be a Windows 10 problem, I wanted to know from Microsoft that suggested fixes were applicable.



Would you please advise Microsoft fix for this problem and/or confirm fixes suggested by CCleaner?

Sorry, the files I have are pdf files not jpeg so not able to attach files.
