RuntimeBroker.exe message - The group or resource is not in the correct state to perform the requested operation

Hello, I'm Greg, here to help you with this.

We can try the fixes for the error in Windows or Safe Mode, and if they don't run or work, switch to the Repair Mode or bootable media to roll back the problem update and block it.

If any steps cannot be performed normally then try them in 1) Safe Mode with Networking (so you have internet) or 2) Safe Mode, accessed by one of the illustrated steps in this guide: https://www.digitalcitizen.life/4-ways-boot-saf....

You will need to use your password to get into Safe Mode as a PIN is not accepted.

Here are fixes for the The group or resource is not in the correct state to perform the requested operation:

If Safe Mode and Windows won't run or is not stable enough, I will show you how to use the built-in WinRE Repair Mode or bootable media to do all possible repairs for Windows 10, leading up to if necessary creating a new Local Admin account, doing a Reset or gold standard Clean Install:
