Windows 10: Status access violation issue 0xc000005 with several programs

Hi,This issue has started quite some time ago. I started to notice it about half a year ago or something but the first dump about this error I found is from 2020 August and haven't been able to solve it yet. The problemThere are several applications which throw 0xc000005 error by analyzing their minidumps. Some handle it silently but still create minidumps, some crash and some has a visible failure:- Chrome: crash or STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION error in a tab - Edge: crash always - Slack: crash and restarts - Dropbox: it must handle it somehow in the background because I haven't noticed the issu
