Windows 10 Weird trouble with some applications

[GordoDepositoDeRavioles]

Here is the thing: some apps are failing and I'm not sure the cause. The error is: windows cannot find <PATH_OF_SOFTWARE> make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. Some apps I mean Steam, Microsoft Office and Garmin GPS sofware, for example. This is what I tried unsuccesfully:
- DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth then sfc /scannow : it did not detect any issues or problems.
- Uninstall software and reinstall: succesfully uninstalled and installed, but then it did not open.
- Event viewer: i tried to execute software as admin, so i could see the log. It showed this problem: A fatal error occurred while creating a TLS client credential. The internal error state is 10013. Looked for some info, but none of the fixes worked (the TLS 1.0 or 1.1 disable thing). Not sure if that is the issue. Also noted Video.UI (16188,D,50) {477FE20A-AE30-4C05-9747-1388E3D1838B}: The database format feature version 9180 (0x23dc) could not be used due to the current database format 1568.20.0, controlled by the parameter 0x410022D8 (8920 | JET_efvAllowHigherPersistedFormat). AKA event id 642 but did not found a good fix.

Any other ideas before reinstalling full system?

Hello there,
Did this problem occur after updating the system or any of that "some applications"?
Seems like update of software without deleting old files (in your case old databases)

are you using a good antivirus

Hurling this in there, just so you know.

IF YOU STICK NEW SOFTWARE IN.

ALWAYS RESTART YOUR COMPUTER.

If you dont like the restart, ask yourself why?

If you still receive errors, once the boot is complete, then have alook at the STARTUP section of TASKMANAGER and see if you have any unrecognised programs, if you do disable them and restart the PC AGAIN !!!

Check out services too search SERVICES run as administrator and check that out.

Ive lsot count of path errors caused by bad programs and malware issues. Worlds best program on the PC MSCONFIG.

Brother I don't know, Windows 11 bug of sorts. Currently I am confused why I get that error trying to access my NAS after the 11 upgrade. I am also running into that problem randomly with other software on one system but not my others. Gotta love it.

Heres a thought that has just sprung into my aged mind.

When you run SFC, DISM and basically any and all operational write back programs in DOS or Powershell, ALWAYS use "Run As Administrator".
If you dont the only thing you get is a report back telling you they have found something and done nothing or they did nothing and found something. (Its DOS what can I say)

I have a postit note on my screen surround reminding me to use it, lost count of the number of times I forgot.

Let us know if this helps

Look under the Resources section here and grab a copy of Jim's Tool Box. All those tools are available in a GUI driven menu in that program.

You can also run in Compatibility Mode Format, in the past when I had buggy apps I used Vista Drivers compatibility and usually always solved the bugs… AHHH Vista, the best drivers Microsoft ever made

Hmm GUI is that abbreviation for " cant recall how to use DOS anymore" lol

Im as guiltu as the rest of programmers falling back on exisiting code instead of using my head to write a new code patch.

Massive thing Ive always loved about the DOS programs they all come with their own help system no matter the complexity. eg SFC /?

Drivers, the eternal bane of existence
