Mostly this is good advice however the chkdsk procedure needs to be run early in the process not later. If your storage device has file allocation errors then all those sfc and dism procedures can actually just make things worse! Open a command prompt as admin, type chkdsk c: /f and enter yes to run at next reboot and then do reboot the system. It's much better to attempt Windows repairs when you know your system drive is free from errors. PS, you could also use the /r option but that takes much longer than /f.

Sir you dont know the beginning of it. Recently I found a windows optimizing prodigy named Khorvie Tech he has a really keen sense with computers and made my 8 year old x99 motherboard work really fast, cpu automatically went to constant 3.7ghz (xeon i7 6900-k LOL) the base ghz is 2.4-2.5 before I messed around and my total boot time into unsupported win 11 on old hardware is less than 15 seconds. I do have a 3090 but it is ddr4 at only 3300mhz which I believe is the max stable megahertz or close to it for ddr4. Edit: I left out the best part. Nothing is overclocked besides the ram with a very cool temp which is why I daily'd it. The boost on the CPU maxes at 3800mhz or 3.8Ghz using intel turbo boost and a few youtubers have gotten it to 4.0-4.1ghz. Apparently it seems when you remove windows OS bloat it allows the hardware to communicate easier or at the very least quicker.

with the assistance of MS support i was able to fix corruption on around 15 servers running server 2008 and/or 2012. the process was the painstaking one you had to follow, retrieving good copies of the cabs from other computers, windows iso's or downloading the specific versions of KBs that came with them. In some cases Microsoft had to provide some of the KBs as they are no longer available to the public. These older operating systems are harder to fix as the build info is not documented (words of the ms tech). server 2019 and windows 10 now has this info published so tracking down the required updates is alot quicker. The corruption issues i faces were due to either machines being rebooted whilst an update was installing or the machine rebooting with pending patches whilst the C drive was completly full (never reboot with a full disk).

Thanks for this. I have a dell PC that has been acting up. It was acting like the power supply wasn't working anymore. This prompted me to unplug the power supply. Bingo it was working again. Now I'll give SFC a try.

I had the exact same Problem you are describing in the Corrupted Windows Profile Section, but I didn't know that this was the issue, so I just reinstalled Windows. Thanks for the help on figuring out what my issue was now I know that it was most likely not a hardware issue.

I want to thank you for this, Joe. I had a Dell laptop with a 2 year install of Win 10 Pro lose the sound. I thought maybe the sound chip had gone bad, bought a used Dell, swapped the hard drive over, and nope, the bad sound went with it. Put a different hard drive in the old one, and that sound chip worked fine. So, I tried the SFC, that found corrupt files, but didn't fix the sound issue. DISM couldn't run because it couldn't find an image, I've run check disk, etc. So, I've had to resort to the Install/Repair option. It's running REALLY slow, so I don't know how it's going to work out. I'll update this if it works. I don't want to do a clean install, that is such a pain for me. But, you're video has been helpful, so thank you for that.

One of the things I love the most when having issues with Windows and you take to Googling the issue.. You come across Official Microsoft guides and forums and they post their guide.. then, you see “Run Windows Troubleshooter”… WE ALL should know by now that Windows Troubleshooter has NEVER fixed anything. Well crafted Video overall! I’m a proponent of DISM and SFC for finding and resolving Corrupt Window Files

the amount of times those two simple commands have helped fixed my pc, honestly it should just run those two every time you restart your computer.

yes. this is one of those times, being entirely online, doesn't actually help. at least with cd/dvd's you were sure, you had a good copy, if you bought it legitimately.

Your two tips in combo worked today after dozens of cmd attempts from other KZbin tuts. Note the indexing of the C drive search logs and shortcuts gets corrupted over long use (temp files get huge and are hidden). We need a way to see WHERE that bloughted search strings temporarily is stored and users should be taught to manually search for that to remove an old index that is corrupted. Once rebuilt re introduce your two first powershell steps to correct. In My case the window popped up for a fraction but not long enough for me to notice it was failing on every attempt to type in the search box. In my case the errors began shortly after a MS Security update

I believe starting in win 10 rebuilding a user profile requires a registry edit (key or dword delete) to completely get rid of the old user so the new one can have the same name (if that matters). Great info man.

Using Inventor (CAD software) when trying to open a new drawing it causes Inventor to hang/freez. Thanks to this video I've came to conclusion I've had a corrupted user profile. I've decided to clean and wipe my laptop to new and started up with a new user profile and new microsoft account and downloaded again my CAD programms from my Autodesk account. Keep it up the good work👍

12:30 big thing to note is that most browsers store all your browser state data in %appdata%. If you're on Chrome, you can sign into Chrome Sync and make sure it's synced and you should be good. Firefox sync is similar but is peer-to-peer I believe; you'll need to have another computer set up with Firefox sync in order to get the same result. Or, you could just export bookmarks and note down all your passwords, that's usually all most people need anyway. Edge is probably similar to Chrome, just sign in and it should sync to Microsoft's cloud service instead of Google's.
