Updated Windows - error code 0xc0000142 - btw - amazing MS knows this is going to be a problem when you update Windows - but doesn't have the tech. or expertise to repair this issue before you update! Followed the directions of going to Task Scheduler app. - reads to right click on the 2.0 update and hit "Run" - when I right click on the 2.0 update - can't right click - nothing happens.
Tried two of the other suggestions - both don't work. So - now that I updated my Windows and it upgraded to Windows 11 - I can't use any of my MS Office apps. Does anyone know how to repair this - if the instructions from MS don't work?
