Blueprism resource pc cannot launch internet explorer with exception HRESULT: 0x8007001F

I am running a RPA to automate a website on internet explorer 11 using HTML mode. Also I use java mode inside the automation to automate a JNLP launched by this website. Usually the automation takes around 30 mins to complete. However after few rounds of execution (after 4-5 hours) the blueprism resource pc fails to launch internet explorer with below error:

A device attached to the system is not functioning. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007001F)

Check Windows Event Viewer and there is no special warning/error at this point of time. The blueprism resource pc is up and running it only fails to launch the IE.
