I believe it’s a vc+ error. Try this;
Start menu, Run, type in: (it may work in the start menu start search field
too)
sfc /scannow
Click OK.

Diane - I entered sfc /scannow in Run. A popup box flashed on screen but did
not remain. Nothing happened. Also did this in start menu start search
field with the same result.
