      Useless feature. Searching for any error will lead you to Microsoft’s support forums, where a so-called MVP told someone with the same problem as you to run sfc /scannow then closed the thread as resolved.

        that, or what’s been happening more recently is it links to an article on the official Microsoft support page but it’s been archived because they’re moving to some new site, and there is no link to the new site’s content that supercedes the dead link

      It has always been possible to press CTRL+C when error dialog is active, that should copy the text of entire dialog including error message
