Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

C:\Windows\system32\cryptdll.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error.

Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator

or the software vendor for support. Error status Oxc0000020. 

 

I uploaded Windows 10 back when it was offered free and have uploaded all current versions since.

 

This appeared after a shutdown of desktop system.  This is a stand alone system no ipads attached.

What can be done to fix this error?
