Try running a system scan to help fix any corruption.
Find command prompt, right click on it and run as administrator. Type:
sfc /scannow
press enter and await results
In the same command prompt and after the above scan has finished type:
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
Press enter and await results
