    Hi,

    I had the same problem. I first deactivated Malwarebytes but this did not resolve the problem. I then turned off .Net 3.5 and restarted my device. Then installed the 2002-07 Cumulative update KB 5015814 for Windows 11 via Check for updates and IT WORKED !! It took longer to download and install than usual but IT WORKED. I then reactivated .NET 3.5 and Malwarebytes.

    For me it sounds it was a problem with .Net 3.5 since deactivating Malwarebytes only did not do the job.

    I hope it helps others.

    I thought this would be it. Until I found that 3.5 isn't installed on my machine anyway. Looks like the in place upgrade is the only thing option left for me. 😫
