Hi,

It may be part of another glitch on Windows 10. :( But do try these troubleshooting steps that may help.
- Start by running Windows Update, install all the updates available.
- Next is to run a complete virus/malware scan that may also help in solving the issue.
- Please do refer to this article for guide and tools you can use.

- Once done and if all these will not work I would suggest running a clean install of Windows 10.
