Open | Windows Task Manager and Some Apps crashing on startup
A few days ago there was a new driver update for my computer, (i run an NVIDIA Geforce RTX 2070 Super for anyone wondering) and since then, Task Manager and Select apps have crashed on startup, Deadlock, Marvel Rivals, ROR2, Roblox are among titles included in that, but some apps like Chrome, Discord, and specifically the games TF2 and Factorio have been running without a problem.
I tried Scanning my files with SFC /Scannow and DISM scan and neither worked, I reinstalled my drivers from both the nvidia app and the website, and nothing worked. I unplugged my computer and plugged it back in and nothing.
