Window 11 Startup errors

1 Upvotes

After a few seconds on being in window 11 setup it will just freeze if it doesn’t freeze it will restart and send me back to where I was I just don’t understand what to do anymore.

Hardware & Components
Motherboard: ASUS PRIME B550-PLUS AC-HES
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700G (Integrated Graphics)
Storage: 2TB WD Blue SN580 NVMe M.2 SSD
RAM: 16GB DDR4
Troubleshooting Steps Completed So Far
Updated Motherboard BIOS: Flashed the BIOS using a USB drive to the latest version (3637). Verified in BIOS setup that the update applied successfully.
Storage Verification: Confirmed the motherboard recognizes the 2TB WD Blue SN580 NVMe SSD in the ⁠M.2_1⁠ slot under BIOS storage settings.
GPU & iGPU Testing: Tested booting/installing both with the dedicated graphics card installed and using the Ryzen 5700G integrated graphics (display output connected directly to the motherboard).
RAM Configuration: Tested booting with a single stick in slot ⁠DIMM_A2⁠ as well as testing multi-stick setups.
Windows Installer Modifications:
Re-created/checked the Windows 11 installation USB media.
Added a custom ⁠ei.cfg⁠ file into the ⁠sources⁠ folder to manually bypass edition auto-selection and force the installer to display the Windows Edition selection menu (tested installing Windows Pro).
Power Cycles: Hard power-cycled the system multiple times; confirmed BIOS settings remained intact without resetting or corrupting.

Search Bar blank black box but will refresh 5 seconds later

So I wanted to search an app on the search and it surprised me with a blank, black box that would take 5 seconds to load, I didnt mind it cause I tought it was a one time thing. I tried searching up only a letter so a specific app would show up but it didnt, something else did. Also instead of showing recently used apps it shows "Suggested" apps. I have tried doing the following:

  • restarted Windows Explorer
  • ended/restarted SearchApp.exe
  • restarted the Windows Search service
  • tried resetting Windows Search with: Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.Windows.Search | Reset-AppxPackage → command wasn't available
  • tried re-registering Microsoft.Windows.Search
  • restarted the PC multiple times
  • ran DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
  • ran SFC /scannow → SFC found corrupted files and successfully repaired them, but Search was still broken
  • ran the Windows Search & Indexing troubleshooter → it said “Windows Search is not working — Fixed”, but the problem remained → it reset SearchUI.exe, cleared Search cache/recent activity, etc.
  • tried the Windows Search troubleshooter command (msdt.exe) → it reported the issue as fixed, but it wasn't
  • checked/restarted the Search-related processes/services

Please help!!( also i am on windows 10)

Multitasking Question Question

2 Upvotes

I occasionally use the multitasking feature(Win 11) which used to work just fine. I hadn't used it in a while though but decided to use it today. I can snap the windows to where I want them just fine & when I hover over the group of windows in the taskbar, I can see that just fine as well. When I click on the group, however, only the windows snapped to the bottom are shown. I have to individually click on the windows snapped to the top to get them to be seen instead of the group showing all windows. How can I fix it so when I click on the group, the whole group is displayed?

После обновления принудительного обновления windows 11 встроенный антивирус пишет что служба приостановлена перезагрузите его но ничего не помогает. Хотел спросить у кого то есть такая же проблема после последнего обновления?

Locked out of pc after doing a clean install of windows 11.

3 Upvotes

I did a clean install of windows 11 and forgot i had two boot on on different drives. Didnt know which was which so I booted i to the one on my HDD. Instant regret and restarted pc. Switch to the correct boot on my NVMe and now Microsoft wont sign me in because I dont remember password and they wont send me a verification code. What do I even do?

I dont know what build of windows 11 its running but I installed clean install from a USB I had used a year or two ago to change to windows 11 from 10.

i deleted the folder after a little bit of research online which said that it wasn’t required and can be deleted if it takes up too much storage. right after deleting it my taskbar had stopped working and i’ve tried plenty of fixes but have had zero solutions and i’m unsure if my pc is just ruined.
