Windows 7 Cannot connect to the Group Policy Client service

[WojtekK1902]

Hi all,
I have a problem with very annoying pop-up that appears on every system startup. It is titled: "Failed to connect to a windows service" and it's written: "Windows could not connect to the Group Policy Client service. This problem prevents standard users from logging on to the system. As an administrative user, you can review the System Event Log for details about why the service didn't respond."
I put the screenshot as an attachment.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you in advance!
