Startup Menu And Cortana Stopped Working On Laptop
Aug 17, 2015Two weeks ago the startup menu and cortana stopped working on my laptop. When I click on the startup menu icon (the little window icon), I get an error message that tells me to sign out, that windows functions aren't working, and that the computer will attempt to fix the issues when I sign back in.
When I click on the internet icon in the taskbar, nothing happens (something should pop up on the side that lets me choose wifi).
I have tried several fixes I found on google, but none have worked. I have tried running powershell from the command prompt (with admin privileges). I tried to look up cortana and search in my task manager to try to disable them, but they weren't there.
I was hoping a future windows update would fix the problem, but my laptop won't update. At the moment I am considering uninstalling the most recent updates, as this happened a day or so after installing updates.
Infinite Loop Of Startup Repair
Nov 1, 2015So i found a possible repair on fixing the current situation o the infinite loop from this forum [URL].... around step 13 it said"If any one of them are 0 bytes, then you should stop what you're doing now and seek an alternative method of recovering your system, because Windows cannot function with a 0-byte size registry hive ". I have 0 as my "RegBack" values and i can't find an alternate .
View 4 RepliesStartup Repair Loop - Blue Screen
Sep 29, 2015I've been using Windows 10 for few weeks now and it's been really good.
8GB Ram
1 TB Hard Disc
Asus Motherboard
i5 processor
Used the PC as I would normally do and shut it down last night. Recently installed the latest update for Win 10 as I recall. Otherwise no new changes or installation to the system.
So now when I switched it on its showing Automatic Startup Repair and it diagnose the PC but fails every time and shows a blue screen of startup repair where I can:-
- reset PC (reinstall but this fails at 36%)
- system restore or image restore ( but can't use either)
- startup repair (doesn't work either)
- command prompt (tried sfc/scannow and they won't allow me to do so unless I restart but keeps getting same error.
Tried unplugging the hard disc etc but same old loop again.
Infinite Loop On Startup Trying To Repair System
Aug 25, 2015This afternoon my wife was doing something on the computer, got stuck, and rebooted. Once she rebooted a screen popped up into a repair diagnostic screen and said it was diagnosing the error to repair it. Only problem was that it didn't repair anything and the options that were available were all tried and nothing fixed this infinite loop issue. Luckily, I backed up my system with Acronis TrueImage so as we're speaking my PC is being restored. Windows 10...
View 3 RepliesThe Operating System Variation Is Incompatible With Startup Repair
Jan 11, 2016I have a laptop that was a Windows 7 Home Premium machine (HP dv6-2150us) that had an Windows 10 in place update performed on it a few months back (Nov 5, 2015). It had been running fine but recently had been randomly crashing. Two days ago, it crashed again and would boot to the "Startup Repair" mode attempt to run, then tell me "Startup Repair" couldn't repair your PC. and endlessly loop through that (if you told it to reboot) unless I went the Advanced Options.
I tried accessing Safe mode with and without networking, but not luck. I can get to the command prompt.
At one point it out of the blue it displayed the path to the "SrtTrail.txt" file which apparently is the log train for the "Startup Repair". The screwing thing is I check the date/time on the log file and each time the "Startup Repair" runs it does update the file whether it displays it on the screen. So apparently it could be random whether MS lets you know where to look for clues. Yeah MS!
Any way the I looked at the "SrtTrail.txt" and it states that the following pass.
"Check for Updates"
"System Disk Test" "
Disk Failure Diagnosis"
"Disk Metadata Test"
"Target OS Test"
"Volume Content Check"
and the Root cause found "The operating system variation is incompatible with Startup Repair"
I did a bit of Googling and found others with the same problem : [URL] .... But they did not have success in reviving the Machine
Any way of resolving the issue that would leave my programs intact? Is it as simple of having the correct BCD entry? If so, what the BCD entry should be the entry for a Windows 7 box that had a Windows 10 in place upgrade done?
The current entry in the boot record is
osdevice: partition=E:
Systemroot: windows
resumeobject: {3c5d113c-777-11e5-82d9-8199ff9a6bfc}
nx: Optin

During Startup Automatic Repair Launches - Stuck In Reboot Loop
Mar 27, 2015During startup automatic repair launches, restart ensues, that's the loop. The error mssg is WDF violation which it seems is related to iTunes. I just can't get out of this loop to do anything about it. I don't have a boot disc. Safe mode is what I would like, but that doesn't work.

Installation :: How To Repair SSD Install With No Driver For USB Repair
Apr 14, 2016I have two Windows 10 installations on my PC. Primary and temp. The primary installation cannot boot with error "The boot configuration data file is missing some required information ".
This happened aftter I wiped out another third disk which was the PC's original disk and apparently kept some boot info.
I have a USB boot disk but that does not see my Primary Windows 10 installation because the drive is running a 950 pro m.2 ssd which there is no drivers for when booted in the USB.
So there is no way that I know of, to use the USB and run a boot repair option on Primary installation.
The other Temp installation can boot into windows 10 and it does see my Primary installation's partition ... but how do I repair Primary while booted in Temp ?
It is a UEFI pc.
Drivers/Hardware :: Boot Manager Missing And System Repair Not Compatible
Sep 3, 2015My situation is that after a recent issue with my user profile going "missing" (I think) I thought do, do you know what I'll just reset my system and start over. But windows 10 would not reset. Instead I grabbed the windows 7 disk to reset that later hoping to install windows 10.
I was having problems with my Kingston SSD so I installed it onto my HDD and later on tried to clone the HDD to the SSD and then format the HDD so the OS ran off the SSD. I have clone the 2 drives but haven't formatted the HDD. I tried booting the SSD but it comes up with the BOOTMGR IS MISSING! I find a solution which is to reset the bootmgr using the code "Bootrec.exe /rebuildcd" but I can type the command in due to not being able to access the system repair.
This system repair issue says that the disk is not compatible meaning I cannot enter to the other options to get to the Command Prompt.
Drivers/Hardware :: Storage Spaces - Unable To Remove Failed Drive / Repair Pool?
Feb 10, 2016I had 3x 3TB drives in a parity pool. It started to fill up so i added a fourth 3TB drive and months later one of the original 3 began to fail on me. Performance was slow, then slower, then it showed disconnected.
I retired the drive and added a replacement, literally the same model 3TB drive. I cannot however, get it to remove the failed physical disk and repair the pool. I even tried adding another 2TB drive i had available in case it needed the extra space (didn't make sense but i was reaching).
I get the "drive could not be removed because not all data could be reallocated. add an additional drive to this pool and reattempt this operation."
I have searched a lot and don't really seem to be getting anywhere. The only way i was able to retire the drive was through powershell. I'm assuming it's a GUI issue and perhaps i'm not approaching it correctly via powershell. Attempting to repair virtual disk didn't work.
I really don't want to lose this data. I wasn't able to backup much before the drive failed completely.

View 6 RepliesApps :: Startup Programs Automatically And Broken Start Menu
Dec 25, 2015I'm trying to run programs upon boot in W10 but it doesn't work.I have put them in Start folder and if I go to Task manager I can see the programs are there as well in Startup tab and enabled...but they will not start. I have to manually launch them anyway.I found out a thread where someone was able to get a fix in the same situation by going to taskbar and menu properties and selecting 'use the Start menu instead of start screen' but my menu has no such tab.
How to try to get them programs to launch upon boot. The machine was just freshly clean installed with W10 and it has but a couple of programs on it - exactly the programs I'd like to auto-start. Done all windows updates as well. Another machine of mine developed a weird glitch in that the start menu doesn't suddenly work at all.It just raises a red box in the middle of screen saying something like 'oops your start menu doesn't seem to work but don't worry, we'll fix it up for the next boot' and then it promptly reboots, but whatever I try it doesn't get fixed.
I have updated the machine several times without issues and it works fine, just can't use the start at all or it reboots...been using it for a month now as it is now, got the big updates and all...but it doesn't get fixed. Start menu would sometimes be rather convenient in a machine, no?
The latter machine I might just re-install clean anew. I have 7 windows boxes all now W10 and it appears every one needs to be freshly clean installed to W10 before they really start working well.
Drivers/Hardware :: Blackscreen At Startup
Nov 26, 2015I have a Samsung laptop. I am running Windows 10 Pro 64x. First, I have 2 drivers installed but I don't get why. When I start my laptop, the Windows logo appear with the loading circle for about 5 second. After that, everything comes black for a good minute. Then, my login screen appear, asking for my password. I am 100% sure it has something to do with my deivers because I tried a couple things. I uninstalled them both, then when the pc started, everything was fine, no blackscreen... Obviously the resulotion wasn't good because I had no drivers. I took about 2 minutes, everything came black and suddenly the resolution was good and both drivers were installed all by themselves. The thing is that the blackscreen is now black when I boot my pc.

View 7 RepliesDrivers/Hardware :: HDD Not Recognized In Startup - Only After Reset
Oct 6, 2015I've recently upgraded to Windows 10 and I'm facing a problem: in the startup one of the HDD is not recognized.. I have to push the reset button and when Windows starts again then the HDD is recognized as normal and everyting goes OK.
But I'm getting tired of this routine.. everytime I need to use the computer I have to make the startup twice.
For more details.. I have Windows installed on a SSD HDD, then I have a SATA HDD and a third IDE HDD which is the one with the recognition problem.. I don't understand why the IDE HDD is not recognized in the first startup...
Drivers/Hardware :: Keyboard Gets Turned Off During Startup
Mar 5, 2016I don't know if this problem is caused because of latest Windows 10 update or not, but lately I noticed when I turn on my PC, or even restart, my keyboard (Corsair K70) gets turned off, while my mouse still working fine. This is the period after bios & logo, when both keyboard & mouse are turned off & then mouse gets turned on again on logon, but my keyboard doesn't. I need to re-plug it to get it working again. They both are connected via USB ports. In device manager also everything is all right, no errors or anything like that. I tried to update driver via device manager. It said "latest driver is already installed".

View 1 RepliesDrivers/Hardware :: Can't Disable Driver Signature Enforcement On Advanced Startup
Feb 1, 2016So this is my 14th or 15th time attempting to disable the driver signature enforcement so I can use motioninjoy to install my PS3 Controller driver to use for Rocket League. However, every time I run advanced startup, the process goes rather slowly before loading up my options. No worries at that point, but when I finally end up at the screen that has the options f1-f9, f7 being the disable driver enforcement, my computer immediately shuts off immediately after loading all of the options. Why it just shuts off... sometimes it shuts off just before it loads all of the options, but I have never been able to disable the driver signature enforcement thus far.
