Windows 10: .NET Framework Initialization Error, Driver issue

I recently did a clean installation of Windows 11 23H2 on my laptop. After that I keep getting an Error in MS Store about .NET Framework Initialization. I also noticed none of the videos on my laptop are playing any sound. If I play the video through VLC it works but under Media Player or Films & TV it doesn't play the audio. Also my Dolby Audio app when opened displays a message saying "Unable to Access Dolby Audio Drivers. Restart the PC and if problem persists reinstall the drivers." I have tried reinstalling multiple times. I feel all these problems are connected somehow. I cannot turn

Microsoft .NET Framework, Unhandled exception

Hi,

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

I suggest you to un-check and recheck .Net framework 3.5 and .Net framework 4.6 advance series from Windows features.

Try the following steps:

• Press Windows + R keys to open Run command.
• Type Appwiz.cpl and select "turn Windows feature on or off" from the left
• Uncheck .Net framework 3.5 and .Net framework 4.6 advance series.
• Restart the computer
• Repeat step 1 and 2 and check .Net framework 3.5 and .Net framework 4.6 advance series.
• Restart the computer.

Regards,

 

.net framework error

Reinstalling Windows (repair installation) should fix these .NET Framework issues.

See:

• How to perform an In-place Upgrade with Windows 10 Step-by-Step Guide - Microsoft Community. It's a non-destructive installation process where your apps, settings, and file will be preserved by default.

Microsoft .Net Framework

Basically, to sum up what I can tell:
-The application(s) that crashed use .NET Framework 2.0 or 3.5.
-First error is it getting nothing when it expected something (not very telling).
-Second error occured in "System.Data.SQLite" which is not .NET Framework. I repeat, not .NET Framework.
-SQLite is is a GNU licenced, free to use library.
-Any .NET-compiled service or process could be causing the error. If you watch the Task Manager, you might be able to tell which process closes after you click on "Quit."

I suggest you search your computer for sqlite*.dll. Whatever programs it is found in close proximity to are most likely the culprits for the crashes.
