You're asking a lot lol - that will never happen. They'd rather you give up and just go buy a new one so they can sell another Windows license 🥲

@craigtegeler4677 10 месяцев назад

I've NEVER had Windows auto repair work for me and so if anything proved to be unrepairable, I would just do a fresh new install and put back all of my installed programs and do a restore of all of my system drivers and settings, using Glary Utilities and then do a AOMEI Restore since my drivers and AOMEI Backups were being stored on a separate partition or separate drive. More times than none, this proved to be the most effective means as opposed to just how slow windows repair tool really is! In doing so, I could do all of this in about 90 minutes with relative ease and the fresh installation just makes it extra nice! In addition to the said non-reparable status initially, knowing that the age of the drive in question and/or the number of hours in service; I would make an immediate judgement call and replace the drive with another solid state drive and proceed from there plus mem sticks testing and/or replacement/upgrade too! @@AskYourComputerGuy

You could. I could. But your average novice wouldn't be able to. Obviously if you have the skills and speed and proper backup protocols in place, it would be easier to start over. But not everyone is that lucky 🤷‍♂️

Fantastic video and thanks for posting this interesting stuff, I've made notes and filed elsewhere off my PC for when I next have that issue. One thing though on restore points, going back many years through OS 10, 8.1, 8, XP etc etc, I have never yet gone to Restore and have it complete the restore, every single time I've ever tried that all I have ever gotten is Windows failed to restore! Also I wonder if one day you might do a video on something we can do to improve the abysmal transfer speeds on Win 10, I've never known it where you get speeds in kbps and seem to remember in past OS`s it being much much higher. Is there a utility or something we can do to speed up transfer speeds? Cheers from the UK

@AskYourComputerGuy 10 месяцев назад

Thank you for the comment. It's true, sometimes Restore "fails", but I've also seen a non-booting system suddenly come back to life after a restore...followed by "system restore failed". Sometimes it repairs just enough to get you back to Windows. Regarding the transfer speed, that's going to be a limitation of the hardware. The faster the drive, the faster the speed. I can transfer from a HDD to another HDD in my system and it might be 15-20k a second. I transfer from an SSD to my NVME external and it jumps to 130-150k a second

One reoccurring problem I often come across on clients computers is a failing hard drive. It's more complicated to diagnose but I boot the computer with a Hirens USB boot drive and use CrystalDisk info. There is no point in repairing a failing drive plus with Hirens you can mount and external hard drive to back up your data. Conversely the disk cloning program to "image" the faulty drive to a new drive which can then be repaired.

Exactly. I'm making a video soon - •Windows expert tries Linux for the first time". Hopefully it will demonstrate that even though Linux may be safer, etc, doesn't necessarily mean that Grandma June in Phoenix can figure it out...especially because I'm pretty sure I will have trouble.

@DJaquithFL 10 месяцев назад

Excellent info and tutorial! 👍😎 Just a thought, It might be a great thing to have "a Windows good practices video" especially for new installs. Fortunately I've only run across that screen a couple times in the last several, probably 10, years. My go-to first choice typically is using a System Restore Point. However, as I recall System Restore is disabled on Windows 10 installs so I don't know what the default is for Windows 11, but it might be worth doing a video about it. I always check it while I'm going through a windows install process. _Lately, as I mentioned, I use a third party app to clone my OS and app M.2 drive a couple times a week. So if I do run across the problem I can boot an F8 and be up and running in a minute._

@AskYourComputerGuy 10 месяцев назад

A) a best practices for install is a brilliant idea, thank you! B) good job on the cloning. It's also on the list, just waiting on a specific vendor to send me the hardware I recommend ;)

@freddiechristian1298 still on the drawing board, just haven't done it yet. I made video on creating a Hirens boot CD which gives you a Windows Explorer-like interface, where you can copy files like you would in Windows, so I put the previous idea on the back burner. Much easier to do in Hirens than from a command prompt, but might still make it, because some people won't be able to get a Hirens disc. Thx for the reminder 👍

I just found your channel and subscribed. I have an HP Envy. It's given me problems from the get go, but HP repaired it under warranty the first couple of times. I recently made the mistake of downloading Windows 11 on it and it crashed again. It's stuck on the Automatic Repair Window. I've watched several repair videos and followed all of their prompts, or hacks, and so far I can't get it back up. I did have a lot going on and maybe need to try again. My son in law did save a back up for me of my files when working to bring it up another time before I downloaded Windows 11. Can I uninstall Windows 11 and go back to Windows 10? I'm going to try taking your advice on this video tomorrow when I have time to sit down with my computer. I did hear that HP discontinued making the Envy's. If it's true, I can understand why. 😢

Does this apply to Windows 7? I unfortunately updated my Apache open Office software and it really messed up my computer . My computer does boot up, but my entire desktop was changed, my icons on my desktop have gone, and it almost looks like a safe mode screen. I ran system restore to a prior date before the Apache software update which caused this and it did not help either. Should I try system restore in safe mode or try additional older restore points?. Your help and advice 🎉will be greatly appreciated. Thank you and best wishes

hi, I'm having random restart with win10 since a few days ago, usually before booting, and if it manages to turn on it restarts after about 20mins. tried to repair win by usb drive it couldn't repair, tried some prompt commands it says "the requested system device cannot be identified due to multiple indistinguishable devices potentially matching the identification criteria" what do I need to do?

Thanks a lot for this very useful tutorial. In my case it will not go to safe mode - just freezes on windows 10 logo. Option to uninstall updates is asking me for a password and tells me that my password is incorrect. Option Cmd command line does the same - 'incorrect password'. Is there any way to reset or bypass my password perhaps using usb bootable flash drive? My main issue is that when I enter my PIN on welcome screen, it shows a few circles then it gets stuck a this point. I would appreciate any suggestions to try. Many thanks.

I got 10yo Ideapad 100 laptop with dual-boot Windows 8.1 on both partitions. Had start-up problem on Windows C drive and a totally unrelated major problem (too much ink to explain) on Windws D drive. I used Safe Mode in “Startup Settings” for C drive - simply went into Safe Mode and then Restart straight away. That completely fixed up C drive problem. But somehow and in someway that operation alone also completely fixed the problem on D drive. How so? Both Windows now work perfectly fine. So thanks for your video.

Surprisingly, safe mode sometimes actually "fixes" many normal day-to-day issues. I always recommend booting into safe mode, then restart after a successful "safe mode boot", before doing any "real" troubleshooting :)

For me, I have found it is best to do a regular disk clone using third party software. I keep all my documents on seperate drives to my Windows drive so I just boot to the cloned drive and clone it back over. That way you can always continue working while the 'backup' and restore' is being done. All of the windows options I have ever tried failed to work and I'd just go round in circles. So that's why I found it best to invest in another Hard Drive and just have a copy of the OS from when it last ran well. I reclone my drive each time I have a major update of an important and bloaty bit of software (e.g. Visual Studio)

I would recommend botha Hirens disc and a Windows installer disc: [2024 MEGA update!] 2 USB boot drives EVERY Windows user should make before it's too late! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pi3haU6h1es.html
