Hello: romungi-MSFT
I have read your question, and I want to offer you my experience and the golden solution to a previous problem that happened to me similar to your problem.
Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files
When critical Windows system files are missing or corrupted, some Windows features may stop working correctly or Windows may stop responding altogether. If this happens, you can use the Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool (DISM) and the System File Checker tool (SFC) to scan your system files and restore any corrupted or missing files.
This is a site explaining how to do the repairs, and it is from the official Microsoft site. You can take a look.
