Steps to reproduce

Hello Microsoft PowerToys Team,
I am facing an issue with PowerToys v0.90.1 on Windows 11. Whenever I restart my PC, a pop-up dialog box appears with the error:
"Class not registered"
This does not happen when I shut down or hibernate the PC—only on restart. When I get this error, I simply close the pop-up and manually restart the app from the hidden apps section in the taskbar (bottom right corner).

System Details:
• PowerToys Version: v0.90.1
• OS Version: Windows 11 Pro 24H2 [26100.3624]
• .NET Version: 10.0.100-preview.3.25201.16
• System Language: English (India)
• Installation Type: Microsoft Store
• Running as Administrator: [Yes/No] (Check PowerToys settings)
• Device: HP Pavilion 15-AB031TX

Request:
Could you please look into this issue and provide any possible fixes or updates? Thank you for your time and support.
