I need to install Linux for school and therefore was partitioning my windows. I created a 60GB and 1GB swap ext3 partitions using easus partition master and now I am getting a blue screen with that code. Note; I haven't tried to install Linux yet.
I used repair in windows usb media which couldn't find anything, then I tried the following:

while trying to troubleshoot a lousy 1.5TB WD drive I had accidentally deleted and recreated the partition on a different USB drive without noticing.What are my options? I don't have a spare drive to restore to. The drive was only using 350GB of 900gb, but it has been filled and erased several times without defragmenting. I have it unplugged now.
It's not entirely a disaster; aside from my (dubiously obtained) movie collection there's nothing really that I need and can't redownload or have on my SSD.
How do I create a system reserved partition on my SSD C: drive. I have 3 other drives installed and all have reserved system partitions.

Trying to upgrade to W10 but it keeps failing at the install part at around 40-60%> it goes into a blue recovery screen with the "Error Code: 0xc0000225" If i keep trying to restart it just comes back. If i pull the CMOS "battery" and wait a little while, it comes works and starts a windows rollback automatically.how to fix this? i would rather not do a clean install.
I just recently upgraded from an earlier build of Windows 10 to the latest build 11099. That went okay. But the problem was when I decided to extend the system partition (as it had only 3GB free left), after rebooting to extend the partition with MiniTool Partition Wizard (it required me to reboot so it could unlock the partition). That seemed like it went okay too, but after restarting, I would get a BSOD and no boot up at all. It seems like the partition extension has messed up the boot files. I say that because a folder named "$WINDOWS.~BT" has been created in the root directory of the system drive. (Now it's drive G: because I'm on another system in another partition temporarily).
And some other folder as well:
So my question is this. Since I have all these boot files here, could it possibly be that while the partition was being extended, the software I used might have messed up those files, and now my Windows doesn't boot up?
If so, or whatever the reason for that matter, is there anything I can do to take those boot files back to where they belong?
I have been unable to create new folders in File Explorer. When I click on a new folder icon, I get the "not responding" message and have to exit the application. This began happening several weeks ago and is now happening whenever I try to create a new folder.

This will make a "This PC" shortcut on desktop, which if you right click on, and choose Properties, will open up "System Details Window" rather than just showing a simple Properties window.
I want to automate the creation of this shortcut by a .reg or a .bat file somehow, Please note, just .rar or .bat automation.

View 1 RepliesHow can I create a shortcut for My Computer (This PC) on desktop in Windows 10? Actually there are 2 kind of shortcut for My Computer:
1. If I just open File Explorer, from left panel I drag and drop This PC to desktop and a shortcut will be created on desktop (This PC - Shortcut). If I right click on that shortcut and choose Properties, "This PC - Shortcut Properties" windows will be opened, which is NOT what I want.
2. I need This PC shortcut that when I right click on it and choose Properties, "Control PanelSystem and SecuritySystem" is shown! And I don't know how to create this one!
I have recently updated to Version 1511 and thought I would try to create a recovery drive on a USB having been unsuccessful when trying in the earlier Windows 10. This time it seemed to be working with the system files box checked, though it seemed to take an age before the USB was required to be inserted. It said I would require a USB of 8GB minimum capacity so I used a 16GB size.
When it finished creating the drive ( I did not see the actual finish but no messages were left on screen) I noticed that the USB had only a little over 1 GB of information loaded.
I would probably find it useful if I could be told what files I should expect to find on the USB and the size of each. The files in my USB are titled: boot; efi; sources; bootmgr; bootmgr.efi and reagent. The sources file ( 1GB) is by far the largest.
I've been trying to create USB boot device for W10 but the program closes without warning a little while after it reaches the analysis stage (after 100% download)
I've tried 3 times now and can't figure out why its not working.
Is there an application, freeware or paid, that works in creating restore points in Windows 10, so if an installed application messes things up, I can restore the saved point, so Windows 10 loads as if the application was never installed in the first place, and Windows registry etc is restored to as it was BEFORE the application was installed?

View 2 RepliesHave been adding many shortcut icons to the desktop by:
Right click on desktop/new/shortcut
Create shortcut window opens & I hit the browse button, which then opens a browser window where I can select "This PC" and navigate to C:Program files to select the .exe file.
This procedure worked well for about 20 items or so. Now when I get to the browser window, the only item in the tree is "Desktop/Gary" - Nothing else, so I can't get to C: drive.
In the meantime, I used File Explorer to locate the .exe file & right click/ send to desktop.
It's possible you might have the contents of the ISO but not the actual ISO image itself on HDD.It's still possible to create a bootable USB using purely MANUAL commands for this example assume Disk nr is 7 and the USB stick is on drive H. The files from the ISO are in say folder WINDVD on drive E here's what to do.
1) open CMD as administrator
2) DISKPART
3) LIST DISK
4) SELECT DISK 7 (remember our example above)
5) CLEAN
6) CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY
7) ACTIVE
8) FORMAT FS=NTFS QUICK
9) EXIT (don't close the cmd prompt though)
10) CD E:WINDVDBOOT (again from example contents of ISO are on drive E)
11) BOOTSECT /NT60 H:
12) After 11) finishes - takes 1 sec approx. copy the entire contents of directory WINDVD to the USB stick as is - copy contents in same folder layout as on the disk - don't have WINDVD as the high level - copy CONTENTS so ist folder on USB stick will be BOOT.
13) now you've got a bootable USB.
I am looking at making a back up of win 10 on here. I see there are anumber of different ways. On this Hp they have their own media creation tool but it says I can make only one. Is there also a limit to the windows creation tool?
View 10 RepliesI have upgraded my Windows 8.1 system to Windows 10 through the Windows update app and have created an installation media USB stick. I want to clean install, something I am very familiar with, but not since the new uefi, gpt, legacy etc. that I'm not familiar with. If I do a clean install and delete the entire disk, Windows will create the partitions and install the necessary "data" to run the computer correctly? I don't need to save the data on the hidden partitions that are present now?
View 9 RepliesThese are my issues:
When I create a New Folder and try naming it, it freezes, then Explorer will restart. The folder will be made but if I try to rename it, it will do the same thing.
When I try deleting that empty folder, the Moving to Recycle bin takes over 30 sec long, there is nothing inside it. I can delete a big regular file instantly.
The Context menu also has very black thicker separator lines compared to what it should be a faint light grey color. That was the first thing I noticed that was off.
I downloaded Windows 10 and created a Microsoft account. I wrote down the password. The next day a log in screen appeared (which I never had before) so I tried to log in. My password didn't work. I tried everything. I called Microsoft and filled out a form and emailed it in. They Told me I have two step verification and they would have to download a program to my computer and I will lose all my software.
