Nine times out of ten the shutdown procedure on the recently installed Windows 10 O/S hangs on shutdown. The only way I can close down the system, after a suitable pause, is to turn off the current, which doesn't seem to do any harm as the system restarts normally the next time I boot it up, but it irritates me considerably.
I am running an HP Z230 tower PC with an Intel i7 processor, 8 GB of RAM, 990 GB hard disk and a 64bit O/S.
I installed W10. This problem appears to be random and happens a couple of time a month. It is really annoying. What happens is, the WiFi appears to stop working. It can't find any available networks and won't reconnect no matter what I do. I have even tried closing/restarting explorer but that does nothing.
If I try to shut-down or restart my computer, it just hangs on the shut-down/restart screen. I have to hold down the power button to get my computer to shut-down. The weird thing is, after a restart, it works fine ...for a few weeks. It just seems very strange.
I use a WiFi dongle. I have a couple of them so I tried each one - they all eventually give me the same result . I have a HP if that works.
On 28/12/15 switched computer on and it went straight into Windows 10 updating, then came up with box saying "update fail", clicked on that and it then kept bring up different disc failures. Now stuck in blue screen which takes me into auto repair which then comes up with PC did not start correctly and gives different options : restart option throws me back to blue screen, troubleshoot advanced option - system restore won't give me any dates so have to cancel out, system image recovery - can't find any images, start up repair - takes me back round auto repair back to blue screen, command prompt - haven't the foggiest what to do here, go back to previous build - ran into a problem and won't be able to take you back.

I have followed different forum topics for solutions and so far I:
- Double checked that RPC service is running & on automatic. RPC Locator is not started & on manual
- Previously had some issues with opencl.dll being corrupted, but following Kyhi's suggestions here: Error DISM restorehealth - Windows 10 Forums
.. I managed to fix it (as you can see from the screenshot, the sfc shows no errors anymore)
In the event viewer I get these:

I installed windows 10 about a week back and although its been having a lot of freezes, its otherwise run pretty smoothly, except for today. I haven't had this issue before today but now whenever I go to open a photo using the normal windows photo app i get an error saying "the remote procedure call failed" and it won't open.

View 1 RepliesI followed Brink's tutorial here: Shut Down Computer in Windows 10 And I saw that there are 2 ways to fully shutdown Windows through cmd: /s and /p. What is the difference between these 2, if both of them are said to perform a full shutdown?
View 3 RepliesI first noticed this after upgrading to Windows 10, it is possible that it happened beforehand but I'm confident that's not the case.Essentially at random intervals, several minutes apart, my USB devices just hang. Most noticeably with the mouse, I get a split second where the mouse can't move and then it jumps to where it should have been when I originally moved it. Same thing happens with the keyboard but it's slightly less noticeable. I've noticed this with my headset as well which is really irritating because it still doesn't make a disconnect noise but for some reason I have to unplug and plug it back in again to get it to work.
It happens on the USBs connected directly to the motherboard but also the front ones as well. There is no disconnect noise when this happens, nothing else hangs it's just the USB devices.The first thing I did was upgrade to latest chipset drivers etc. This did not fix the issue, so I did a clean install of Windows 10 and I'm still having this problem.

I have a Samsung RV511 and have recently tried to upgrade from win 7 to win 10. Everything goes smoothly until the restart after everything is downloaded. My laptop restarts and then hangs on the win 10 logo.
I tried restarted and win 7 loads up and im greet with this message once I log on: 0xC1900101 - 0x20017
The installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during BOOT operation.
I just upgraded my neighbor's computer from 7 to 10. All went well EXCEPT for a small glitch. I set it up without a password and it boots to desktop really fast. Upon her checking it out she wanted me to set up a password to keep her children from logging on to it. I did. The password works OK BUT just before the screen asking for the password the computer hangs at the time/date screen. The screen is a pic of a seascape/beach looking through a rock tunnel. I've seen this screen after a computer wakes up from sleep. It will go on if you tap a key. Any way to bypass/stop this screen from showing. She didn't have it with 7 using a password. I tried msconfig with no GUI boot but it doesn't work.
View 4 Replieswhen I disconnect from my work VPN, sometimes it hangs at "Disconnecting".
the only indication is when I try and reconnect nothing happens the "Connect" button just flashes.
the only way to reconnect is to reboot.
am I the only one getting this, and if not is there a solution to this behaviour??
Every time I try to reinstall Windows 10 it always hangs when I have to input my time zone, no keyboard inputs or mouse registration however keyboard and mouse works on BIOS, this is the screen that I get stuck at:

Every Microsoft update that I have whenever I restart my PC it always hangs at 30% and the little loading icon freezes
View 9 RepliesWin 10 hangs in the boot process. It hangs at the point where the login screen should be appearing. Actually it is the step before that as I don't get the picture. The system goes to a black screen and becomes unresponsive.
This used to be a dual boot machine, Ubuntu and Windows. I have the machine only trying to boot windows. The grub menu system has been removed.
Along the way I used the Ubuntu gparted. This tool is telling me that there is a corruption problem with the Windows OS partition. The RECOVERY partition looks clean.
Now if I strike f10 (I think) during the boot process I can get into the recovery menu system. If I choose to fix startup problems I can eventually get to a very scaled back version of Windows without networking. The debugging mode doesn't work and the boot logging mode doesn't work. I don't see my own account login but rather get an administrator account that seems to be built into windows. This account doesn't let me do simple things like turn on the networking.
I guess I need to create some kind of a recovery thumb drive that will allow me to boot things "normally."
I upgraded from windows 7 pro x64 to Windows 10 pro x64. Since the first time I upgraded, it's all good the first 10ish minutes, and then nothing works.If I open a new tab in Edge, that one doesn't load. If I click a link on an existing page, it doesn't load.
The windows menu shows up when I click it, but I cannot search anything in it.If I start a new application, it doesn't start it.Win-R does show the command runner, but anything ran there doesn't start (even cmd or notepad) (no matter which app, explorer, notepad, etc...).
Restart/Hibernate/Shutdown doesn't do anything.I have to force reset (hardware button) to be able to use the computer another 10ish minutes before it becomes unusable again.
I tried removing many services/apps at start-up, didn't work. Malwarebytes and panda antivirus didn't find anything wrong. Repair start-up / system didn't work. So I performed a clean install of Windows 10 (still pro x64).
I have been recently noticing that my computer sometimes hangs up with a blank screen when the windows 10 login screen is supposed to load. I am forced to press the reset button in order to eventually log on.
I have then noticed through event viewer a bugcheck warning. I have been trying to find what the cause or issue might be but I have not had any luck. I am attaching a report as per forum rules
When i start the laptop it stops at the dell logo and does nothing till the time i dont press a key. After pressing a key it starts log in.
View 1 RepliesI am running Windows 10 (64-bit), but this problem also occurred on 8.1 and 7 (both 64-bit) with clean installations. I am also dual booting Ubuntu Studio 15.04, but more on that later.
When I boot my PC into 10, I have up to ten minutes before my PC either resets forcefully by itself, or freezes and never recovers. When I check the Minidump folder afterwards nothing is there.
I have replaced both my CPU (amd fx-6300) and PSU (corsair cx500m), and tested my RAM (with both sticks or just one), but none of that has fixed the problem.
My BIOS settings are at their defaults, no over/underclocking or over/undervolting at all.
The odd thing is, Ubuntu Studio runs fine with no crashes as far as I can see *EDIT: NOT THE CASE* , but if there was a software problem surely there would be a dump file?
So I got a new laptop - MSI Dominator Pro GT72. I added two 8GB sticks of RAM on top of the current 16GB currently in it. It also had two Kingston m.2 SSDs in RAID 0. It was running with out any problems what so ever. I decided after that I actually wanted the ssds as two independent drives. So I removed the RAID setup and did a clean install of Windows 10 back on. That seemed to install all ok.
Then In the process of installing the drivers from the provided MSI disc it hung and then restarted. Then ever time after on login it froze a few seconds in. I thought I'd try a clean install again on the other SSD this time just to see if it reoccurred. Sure did. After installing some of the drivers and using the machine it crashed again and froze on login. I even tried all the updated drivers from the msi website instead of the ones on the disc.
I've run a memtest and absolutely no errors. I've updated the bios and firmware also. I then began running verifier to see if I could find a culprit. I got a BSOD before login repeatedly. I then got down to only selecting a bare few drivers in the test and was able to login with no BSOD. When I ran verifier with combinations of drivers they worked sometimes and only really seemed to crash when i stacked more and more drivers for it to test. I'm not sure if its suppose to work that way or not.
I thought it might have something to do with me separating the m.2 ssds from the RAID. I should mention that there is a 1TB hdd also in the machine.
I am currently using windows 7 64-bit.
I downloaded windows 10 from the ms site (the automatic icon never appeared on my pc), and am using the media creation tool.
All goes fine until 'Getting Updates', when it hangs on 'checking for updates'.
I have tried playing with the settings in Windows update, but suspect the problem lies in there somewhere... my windows 7 was recently proving unable to install all its updates also. I've tried various solutions for that but no luck.
Is a clean install the answer?
I'm upgrading to Windows 10! But it hangs on this part... How to speed this part up?
View 2 RepliesMy newly built computer is borderline unusable due to constant hangs - the computer will frequently pause then continue after about 45 seconds, which makes doing any work basically impossible. During the course of writing these few sentences running the log collector, and uploading the logs, it hung 5+ times. The only programs that typically are running are Word and Chrome. BSODs are less frequent, but still an issue.
This is tied to the network card, but maybe there is something else (or multiple things) going on.

View 3 RepliesHang in Windows 10 when using Microsoft Edge?
It has happened to me two or three times, so I've had to stop using Edge.
It happens when I'm actively using Microsoft Edge for some time and then suddenly the all the system hangs. All frozen. I can't clic on anything and the clock in the taskbar is completely frozen. Can't do anything. I can see there is some disk activity ongoing because the HDD activity led flashes. Only solution is hard-reset.
