Run the sfc /scannow System File Checker command to replace a missing or corrupt copy of the advapi32. dll file. Since some versions of Windows use this file, the System File Checker provided with the OS should be able to restore it.
The advapi32. dll file, usually located at the Windows\system32 folder, provides advanced Windows API functions related to Windows registry, services, applications and user accounts. If this file becomes missing or corrupt, then the system is unable to load properly and the “ADVAPI32.
It stands for Advanced Windows 32 Base API as it can be read on clicking with secondary (right) pointing device (mouse) button on file %SystemRoot%\System32\advapi32.dll, clicking with primary (left) pointing device (mouse) button on context menu item Properties and selecting next the tab Details with the File description showing this information.
Found on Microsoft documentation page How RPC Works:
Advapi32.dll is an advanced Windows 32 base API DLL file; it is an API services library that supports security and registry calls.
