[Rustys]

For some reason showing the Microsoft link as Redirected which gives a way to maybe enable it.

Do not forget to try a different login user account.

Press the Windows Key + R to open the run dialog box.

and to confirm, when you created the other user account and logged onto it, the problem is still there?

yes thats correct

as a work-around until a permanent fix is found, you could just run ctfmon.exe every time you start the PC.
something like this.

create a .bat file with these commands;

@echo off

start C:\Windows\System32\ctfmon.exe

and place a shortcut to that .bat file into C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

that way, each time Windows starts, it’ll run that batch file and start ctfmon for you.

We could also attempt a SFC and see if that corrects it. Could be that the file is corrupted.

The only other options is to put it in the Run section of the registry.
