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 ай бұрын
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.

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 🤷♂️

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._

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 ;)

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. 😢

any tips on if it won’t even allow you to reset your pc? i’ve tried every tip i’ve come across and none of them seem to be helping at all. this whole thing happened after the power suddenly went out.

I opened up one of my old files and my computer just stopped working, none of the buttons, apps, nothing. I’m stuck on the dell loading screen and it won’t let me open up winRE, what do you think my issue could be, corrupted drive?

I did the scannow on the command prompt and it detected/fixed my problems with my missing kernel files and my 0xc0000001 error. Thank you so much, sir.

What if my laptop keeps rejecting my MS 365 account password, and I am unable to use any of the options on the Advanced Options menu (Uninstall Updates, System Restore, Command Prompt, etc.)? The password only works when I login to my Microsoft account online from another device.

@@AskYourComputerGuy at 6:00 you are typing on the prompt xcopy H:\test H:\test /E to show how to retrieve files or folders. You mentioned that you should do a video on how to do this. I was wondering if you ever did the video or are still thinking about doing one.
@AskYourComputerGuy 7 ай бұрын
@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 👍

Unfortunately, I let one of my PC's go through and "fix" my data drive. The result was that ALL of my files are now gone; the process took about 8-hours, on a 2T data drive that was about 70% full. Before this 'event', I thought my PC was running fine. However, I think what _I_ did was to leave a lot of browser windows open on an 8M-RAM PC -- so I _think_ the system was using my data drive for extra storage for Windows -- and that my have caused the HDD to wear out? (It is only a 2-drive system -- 128G SSD for Windows & programs; and 2T HDD for data.) What are your thoughts? Also, most importantly, how do I recover my data from the "Fixed" drive? I have not touched this PC since the Windows "Fix", so I'm hoping that most of my data is recoverable, but I'm not sure how to proceed. I also need the tree-structure restored, as much as can be, as files all mixed up would take weeks or so to re-sort. _PLEASE_ provide me with a recovery process!! Thanks in advance!!

I have tried the cmd prompt with various commands, but I still have a Windows 10 drive that won't boot because it doesn't have the boot partition. I have tried creating it, but when I wanted to put the efi files on it, the drive booted up to a BSOD screen. Do you have a solution that will work?
