Hi, yesterday I cleaned my computer pretty well with the CCleaner cleaning app, but after cleaning it and restarting, the apps stopped opening. I tried using a restore point from 2 days ago, but it still doesn't work. I don't know what to do because, for example, Launchers like Epic give me an error saying something is missing, but the apps won't open at all.

Greetings @jasonn10 

 

Welcome to the HP Forum.

 

I don't know if you used CCleaner's registry cleaner. I don't use registry cleaners.

 

Try a W11 non-destructive in-place upgrade.

 

Back up data on the system drive before modifying Windows to be safe.

 

Go to:

 

Settings>System>Recovery.

 

Look for "Fix problems using Windows Update'.

 

Select "Reinstall now".

 

Regards
