WELL here I am still trying to troubleshoot things on my PC after that damned Windows update

System Restore didn't work, I couldn't get Startup Repair to work because of the way logins are a coin flip right now

DISM's restorehealth function was inaccessible yesterday so I did some tinkering and it's now at least working now and in-progress as I type this, though I dunno if that'll help at all

It's just so, SO annoying because if I don't figure this out, I have to wake up every morning and turn this thing off and on via the power button like 4-5 times before it cooperates with me :x

Command #6 – sfc (Windows OS)

SFC (System File Checker)System File Checker (SFC) is a built-in Windows utility designed to scan for and repair corrupted or missing system files. SFC ensures the integrity of critical operating system files by replacing them with the correct versions from the Windows installation source, helping to resolve system stability or performance issues. Keep in mind, you will need administrative…

On Boot Failures

Headlines everywhere on Friday, the 19th of July, 2024 were about the massive computer outages caused by a faulty update to the CrowdStrike antivirus software. It seems some config file choked up a kernel module causing Windows machines to fail with the infamous Blue Screen of Death.

I recently started a new job and was perhaps a little smug in the fact that in my new job I am no longer responsible for hundreds of endpoints running CrowdStrike.

Karma's a bitch though.

I shut down my home PC Friday night to install a memory upgrade and after powering it back on I was met with the very same Blue Screen of Death.

"A critical process died" it told me, with no information about what said process actually was.

And no log files.

And no dump files.

System Restore failed. sfc /scannow failed. dism /cleanup-image failed. Everything I could find failed. I couldn't even just reinstall Windows over the existing installation because apparently that requires being already booted into the OS that currently isn't running.

The log files from dism led me to believe the problem might be related to registry corruption, but my attempts at replacing system registry files with clean ones from an install wim were not successful.

I was grasping at straws. Starting from scratch with a clean install is daunting and would have set me back weeks. I was contemplating pulling out an old SSD and just running with Linux Mint for a while.

Through desperation, I downloaded Hiren's BootCD PE so I could poke around a little more. None of the tools included there were able to resolve the issue either, but just having access to a standard Explorer shell and a web browser helped.

Finally I came across ShadowCopyView, a program that can explore the System Restore images that Windows (can) take regularly. In one last desperate effort, I moved out all of the system registry files from C:\Windows\System32\config and used ShadowCopyView to replace them with copies from an automatic restore point the previous Monday.

That actually did the trick. I was able to reboot into my primary Windows partition and sign in like normal.

I have no idea what may have been lost in a few days of registry updates, and I have no idea what may have caused the problem to begin with. But I am happy I was able to find something in the end that would get me back into my system without having to reinstall everything from scratch.

... Although maybe I should anyway.

And should anyone encounter something similar in the future, these were the kind of errors I was seeing that a Google search wasn't really coming up with anything useful:

dism.log: failed to open registry root

dism.log: failed to query for path to user profiles directory

dism.log: failed to load the default user profile registry hive

dism.log: failed to load offline store from boot directory

srttrail.txt: pending package install

strtrail.txt: boot manager generic failure

guys, how do you sfc /scannow on Linux? I sometimes boot Windows from an external drive and it gets marked as dirty every time after that. I don't wanna just force mount it or write the partition into my fstab

[wiratomkinder]

grinding my teeth looking up troubleshooting for a firewall group policy question and the only answer to this poor guy’s post is “I used chatGPT to formulate this expert response :) here it is: have you tried running sfc /scannow”

[capriccio-ffxiv]

FFXIV players on Windows! (This is Windows 10 but it should work in 11?)

If you get a crash with an error message that says something like

[bunch of gibberish].dll

There is a very simple fix. Start by closing all programs you have running. Then...

1) Run Command Prompt as Administrator. To run as Administrator, once you find Command Prompt, right click it, and select "Run As Administrator." If you get a pop-up asking if you're sure, say "yes."

2) Copy paste the following command into Command Prompt:

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

Press Enter.

Wait until the computer is done.

3) type or copy paste in the following command:

sfc /scannow

Press Enter

Wait for the computer to finish. This may take a while, so, go for a walk, read a book, use your phone, idk, stuff that's not on your PC.

And done!

Tl;Dr explanation of what's going on: sometimes system files get wonky when a program updates a lot, such as when you have a new MMO xpac that's updating. This gives your computer clean copies to compare to, scans for broken copies, & then fixes the broken ones.

TARI.EXE (Puzzlevision Corruption)

I'm not even kidding, I had a dream where that TV guy and Tari have some sort of connection and kidnapped her so she becomes his property again, forcing the SMG4 gang to go through endless unwanted simulations to entertain him. I've been thinking about that dream repeatedly, and ever since Western Spaghetti I did want there to be some sort of connection. Can't wait to see more of TV Guy (or Puzzlevision as it says on his face). Also, the background text are just command prompt text, or rather Tari's programming. I've been finding so many examples of how to do program writing.... or coding? Idk lol. At some point my brain just stopped working. Anyways, i'll put below what the text says, and if you pay attention to the numbers in the written sequence, you'll see some hidden detail (Hint: The numbers are episode dates).

sfc /scannow worked????

[noonmutter]

Time to play "what the fuck is making my computer take 3 minutes to turn off when it takes 45 seconds max to turn on"

Not the answer so far:

a bunch of random services I noticed that aren't useful or necessary

Fast startup being active

Before anybody says a word, sfc /scannow turned up no integrity issues and had no impact on next shutdown/restart

I'm going to be very annoyed by the end of this, probably

also for the record I got here because I started playing "why the fuck won't discord start on boot" again, since it's been a few years. That game always leads into another, more annoying game

[yourlocalnerd07]

Oh, I see you have a problem with Windows! Have you tried running the troubleshooter? Oh, it didn't work? Have you tried rebooting, or updating, or reinstalling drivers, or running sfc /scannow or DISM? Oh, what's this? None of that worked because they're intentionally empty solutions? Just reinstall Windows. You're supposed to reinstall your OS every several months, anyway. (Forget about the times when you didn't need to do that. They don't exist, silly!

[hedonicghost]

You can also try running the system file checker and dism tool! in command prompt do "sfc /scannow" and then when its done do "DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth"

i'm so sure there is your honor

[octan-computer]

sfc /scannow
