Type Settings onto the [Cortana] search box, click Apps, Dell Support Assist , and select Advanced Options. You could either select the Repair or Reset option to fix Support Assist.

Please power off the system, wait about 5 minutes, and then power on system. Hopefully Dell Support Assist starts normally...

Hi SeraioDimini and LSUFAN51,

Thank you for details about the issue.  It appears to do with the corrupt files according to the error code -0x0000005.  Dell team is looking into this issue.

Thank you,

Dell- Kumar

Have you tried downgrading to Windows 98 to see if that fixes your issue?
