Unable to Open "Personalize" or "Display" Option After Right-Click on Desktop
Windows 11 (Version 21H2)
Hello everyone, I need assistance with a recent issue I've encountered. Every time I try to right-click on the desktop and open either "Display" or "Personalize," a Windows Script Host error message pops up (refer to the screenshot attached). I'm unsure how to resolve this problem. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or guidance. Thank you.
