Windows 10: Microsoft edge we couldn't create the data directory

Hello,today, when I started my system, I received a message from Microsoft Edge saying: "We couldn't create the data directory." However, I did not launch Edge myself. Additionally, I noticed some Chinese characters appearing in the message, which concerns me.My system language is set to English, and everything was installed in English, so this seems unusual. Could this be some kind of Chinese spyware or a security issue? Please let me know what should i do.I cant insert error image so here's imgur link to the error message. https://imgur.com/a/aMuXEkO
