task manager win 10 "general error trying to start process"

When I click "restart" for a process running in task manager, it throws a message "general error trying to start process". The process continues to run. The error dialog does not show an error code. I can terminate the process normally but the restart
command does not work. I have run sfc/scannow and DISM with no effect. Suggestions?

 

No restart button in task manager

another easy way to kill tasks, download and install Winaero Tweaker(free) and theres a setting to add a Kill non responding tasks using the desktop right click menu. When you place your cursor on the desktop anywhere and right click the option is at the top of the list, Very handy and you dont have to go through all those steps and well Winaero Tweaker has alot of cool Windows tweaks. Just posting a different suggestion, Im sure your ok with what was suggested here.
