I was wondering what was crashing my PC, so I checked the Event Manager. Every single crash was preceded by 6 to 12 instances of error messages regarding DbxSvc, Error 281, CertFindCertificateInStore failed with: (-2146885628).
Having read the thread now, the solution seems simple: If this asks for a certificate that just isn't there, it should stop asking for it.
I find it funny that support claims that its fundamentally not a big problem, when my PC is crashed by this error about once per hour. Must be nice not having work on your PC thats not important enough to lose it.
Can you please fix it?

I cannot believe how long it takes an experienced developer team to solve such a silly, easy issue.
And they provide the most important reasons for not paying for the service, in instance lack of trust and ability.

Just came here, as have been looking at reasons for the occasional PC lockup I've been having, and these same errors are some of the last events logged before the hang.
