Windows 10: PC Keeps freezing after a series of updates. Error setting traits on Provider...

I ran a ton of updates on my PC recently before starting a new remote job and since then, my PC keeps freezing at seemingly random times. I updated:- Windows via Windows Updates- Firmware via Dell Update- GPU drivers via Nvidia's website- Zoom via Zoom application- Quest 2 Headset installed and the companion app installed- installed a new USB webcam and USB headsetI've gone into Event Viewer to see if there's any events that correspond with the freezing, but all I can find is the "Error setting traits on Provider {8444a4fb-d8d3-4f38-84f8-89960a1ef12f}. Error:&nb

I'm not sure this is a serious problem. See this MS Technet thread for some hopefully helpful discussion: Event ID 28 Error setting traits on Provider

Thanks for the heads-up. Even being aware that many, if not most errors in Event Viewer can be ignored or will be fixed on their own, when debugging one invariably gets caught up in determining what may indeed be so dismissed. Oh, well.

Searching the reg I find the provider does not exist. So, what/where is the origin of the request? It might hold a ton of answers to other questions. I don't tolerate errors. Lots of people have compiler tech, and like to use it when necessary. Guess I'll query "Error setting traits on Provider" in the reg, and see what it says. Tks.
