Error message on boot up.

Question
-
When I boot up, I get the message "Another instance is running configuration system failed to initialize". How do I fix?

I'm running Win 8.1. It appears in a small box with "Another instance is running at the top" and" configuration system failed to initialize" inside the box.- Edited by BluesDrummer Monday, August 3, 2015 7:08 PM

Hello,
I'd ask in the Windows 8.1 forum on Microsoft Community.
