Windows.storage.dll not found error

I am using Windows 10, and whenever I boot up my computer I'm met with a huge amount of system Error messages reading:


The code execution cannot proceed because

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\windows.storage.dll was not found.

Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.


This happens with many programs when I try to run them, so when my computer boots there are a bunch of programs attempting to open but not being able to. I can, however, open Firefox and File Explorer.


My windows.storage.dll still exists in the specified folder.


The problem began after I improperly shutdown my computer during the launch of a steam game (by holding down the power button until it turned off).


I have tried using sfc /scannow and chkdsk /r and /f in the command prompt in safe boot mode, but nothing has worked.


I can't run .exe files, as the same error message still pops up.


Any help would be appreciated.
