Part of an answer of Microsoft on a problem with dwm.exe (see my topic W10 on small / marginal systems) is run sfc/scannow. That was a disaster, when I returned after an hour or so, I found my PC trying to install W10 TP 10041. I just rebooted, it told me that it could not install and all looks...

Hey, everyone. My first BSOD occurred about 10 days ago, randomly and frequently. I'd done SFC /scannow and 'Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth', nothing wrong. Then several rounds driver verifier, uninstalled some programs with drivers that triggered BSOD, drivers indicated by...

Cannot install Windows Live Essentials 2012 Here's the latest in a long series of unsolvable problems where Windows Essentials 2012 can not be installed. I've asked this same question on other forums only to have it insulted, ignored or used to guide me to spam. The repeated error message -...

I hope this is the right forum but I think my error is fairly generic across all the windows OS's. I have found myself is a fairly irritating position. My SBS 2008 server has failed and causing me a whole lot of pain in the process. There was a fairly comprehensive backup plan in place...

Hello and welcome, Today my beloved Win 8.1 gave me a surprising license deactivation, meaning the license just suddenly became void despite working properly for some few months. I suspect two reasons: - I changed GPU the day before (but it's not like the problem occurred right after changing...
