Everytime I boot my PC, I will be greeted with below message.

I notice that the process is suspended in task manager as well.

So far, I do not see any problem with anything I am doing on this PC but I want to get rid the error (and possibly fix whatever problem is happening in the background).

Some info if it helps, there are only 2 users on this PC, 1 administrator and child user (controlled by Microsoft Family feature). I am the administrator.

    Windows Shell Experience Host points to the process shellexperiencehost.exe in Task Manager. The purpose of "Shell Experience Host" is to provide Universal App integration in the Windows Shell (Windows Explorer), notably the taskbar. In simple, it responsible for the running of the Universal App in Windows 10. The file ShellExperienceHost.exe is located at %SystemRoot%\SystemApps\ShellExperienceHost_cw5n1h2txyewy.

    If its popping up, try the following:

    Open Start, type: CMD

    Right click CMD

    Click Run as administrator

    Type in at the prompt OR Copy and Paste these one at a time : (Hit enter after each)

    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth

    Also run the System File Checker utility:

    Open Start, type: CMD

    Right click CMD

    Click Run as administrator

    At the Command Prompt, type: sfc/scannow

    This will check for any integrity violations
