How to get rid of "open media" pop-up setting in VLC

Well, a given error may not necessarily be a bad thing and it depends on the code which is associated with it. If it's 0x80070002 for example it means DISM couldn't find the file. It depends then on what it's called and whether it's a driver or not.

You could make a cursory check of the first 25 errors identified and see what the code and name of each file is. Check the error codes against those listed in this Microsoft document about halfway down the page.

Hi, I would like to say that the reported issue finally solved probably by windows update! This is just my guess based on what I have experienced by windows remedy tools with the help of dear Hitchhiker in late 2020
This is the name of the latest update that is installed on my device: March 9, 2021—KB5000802 (OS Builds 19041.867 and 19042.867)
Now I can enjoy the awesome VLC player again!

Aha! The evil Micro$oft was the culprit after all. Thanks for letting me know.
