Each time I start up I get the following item. I click OK and it goes. I have tried Ccleaner but it does not remove it.


An image from 'Start up item'. Windows error 'Incorrect function' relates to Win32Bridge.Server.exe on Windows 10 Pro version 21H1.

Is it important and how do I remove it.

Terry Green

Probably just need to reset the package. You can follow this guide I wrote.
Change this line
$SEHPackage = Get-AppxPackage -Name "*ShellExperienceHost*"
to this
$SEHPackage = Get-AppxPackage -Name "*Win32Bridge*"

Thanks. I have installed and the result is a folder with 163 files mostly applications. I have tried autoruns64.exe with opens large screen. I tried Boot and Logon neither shew file. I then tried Everything and Filter Win32Br which finds nothing.
Which application should I use and should I search in Boot, logon or elsewhere
