@Russell_D-6, Hello and welcome to the HP Support Community!

Thanks for posting your question. I'm here to help you get things back on track.

The error you're seeing:

C:\Windows\SystemApps\MicrosoftWindows.Client.AIX_cw5n1h...
AIXHost.exe - The application is exiting and cannot service this request

is related to AIXHost.exe, a component of Windows system apps responsible for handling certain user interface elements in Windows 11. This issue can occur due to:

• Corrupted system files
• Conflicts with third-party software
• Incomplete or problematic Windows updates
• Driver incompatibilities 

Here's how you can resolve it:

Step 1: Run System File Checker (SFC)

1. Press Windows + X and select Windows Terminal (Admin).
2. Type the following command and press Enter: sfc /scannow
3. Wait for the scan to complete and follow any instructions if issues are found.

Step 2: Check for Windows Updates

1. Go to Settings > Windows Update.
2. Click Check for updates and install all available updates.
3. Restart your notebook.

Step 3: Repair Windows Components via DISM

1. Open Windows Terminal (Admin) again.
2. Run the following commands one by one:
   DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
   DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
   DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Step 4: Update HP Drivers

Use HP Support Assistant or manually update drivers:

• Download HP Support Assistant: HP Support Assistant | HP® Support
• Or visit your notebook’s support page: Official HP® Support

Step 5: Optional - Reset the App

If the issue persists, you can try resetting the app:

1. Go to Settings > Apps > Installed apps.
2. Search for MicrosoftWindows.Client.AIX (if listed).
3. Click Advanced options > Reset.

I hope the information shared has been useful and resolves your concern.

Wishing you a smooth and hassle-free experience ahead!
