I think you better re-install laz again but this time tell it to fully uninstall what is there and clean it out.

Also, install Lazarus at the root somewhere , do not put it in the programs folder.

May be reason is a "Free Pascal" compiler stand alone installed at "C:\FPC"

Did you recently update? Or is this a new install?

In any case, try menu: Tools > Configure build lazaurs
In the dialog make sure to check the item "clean all" and then build.

After the IDE was rebuild it should work.

New install. At first, "Free Pascal" compiler was installed in "C:\FPC" folder, then a Lazarus in "C:\lazarus" folder.

Why did you install a separate FPC when Lazarus provides one with its installer on Windows?

When I have separate FPC installed, i did not know about Lazarus.
