Hi,

I'm seeing the following errors in Event Viewer. I have disabled Cortana via gpedit but that does not help. However, that did not help either.

Already tried.
1. SFC /scannow
2. DISM
3. Delete "TileDataLayer" folder
4. Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

How can I get rid of the error?

Unable to start a DCOM Server: Microsoft.Windows.Cortana_1.13.0.18362_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy!CortanaUI.AppXynb3eakad12451rv00qxextfnce9sxb8.mca as Unavailable/Unavailable. The error:
"2147942667"
Happened while starting this command:

Is the error impacting you some how? If not then I would just ignore it. There are numerous "errors" in eventlog that are benign and you can just ignore them
