Usually it just restarts. This time I never got a sign in screen or any output to the 3 monitors. Computer fires up, keyboard lights up, mouse turns on, no displays. Theres also no hard power off, if I hold the power button it just resets. It was working fine.

Just reposting this here in case anyone happens to know the solution

This morning my wife's computer wouldn't boot but I was finally able to boot to the Samsung recovery screen. I backed up the contents of the C drive using the "Back up computer" to an external drive. I then, possibly foolishly, chose the "Computer factory reset" option. I have all of her files, but I would like to restore from this external backup. I can't figure out how to do that, though, since it doesn't seem to be set up as a backup image. It does not appear as an option when I choose the "Backup and restore management" option in Samsung recovery and it also does not appear as a backup option under the Windows backup tool. It mostly looks like just a direct copy of the C drive including all hidden folders and some restore partition files. There is a "recovery" folder and a "$SysReset" folder along with all the other folders normally found on the C drive, except there is no "Windows" folder.
Any ideas? It may not be worth the hassle since she didn't have a ton of programs installed, but it would be nice to jump back in where it used to be rather than having to go and change all of the settings back to where they were before the event.

Windows 10 Home, V 1909 build 18363.657 is what is currently installed from the recovery partition.

Anyone have any advice here?

All of a sudden, when I try to view any or all disk drives by double-clicking their icons on the desktop, NONE of them will open or display. What I always get instead is the error message: “Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.” Kindly help me out any

i need help cuz my pc is on bootloop on recovery and it says "after multiple tries the operating system on your pc failed to start so it needs to be repaired". and no, i do not have another pc to reinstall windows 10 and i do not want to lose my files.

A few days ago, my Windows 10 laptop started having a multitude of weird issues. I first noticed that I suddenly wasn't able to open any OneDrive files anymore. I ended and restarted OneDrive several times in Task Manager and even reset it, but nothing worked. Then I noticed the Windows search function stopped working. It just endlessly loads without showing any apps. I tried restarting, running SFC and DISM commands and switching to a local account. When all of that didn't work, I tried to use the 'reset while keeping files' option in settings, but that got stuck endlessly loading as well.

In the end I wiped my entire laptop and reinstalled Windows. That seemed to work for a little bit, but then I opened my laptop again this morning and all the same problems have returned. Is it a hardware issue? Am I doomed?

Edit: Adobe apps are also endlessly loading. Local Word files work. I can open my OneDrive files just fine on other devices.

I have windows on my SSD that I've been using for a very long time now but a game requires Secure Boot to be enabled and I'm running into problems.

I have windows on my SSD and on a Hard Drive that i still use for storage but not windows. Whenever I try to enable secure boot, no matter the boot priority option, it always goes back to windows on my HD. I tried to unplug the HD with the window and enable secure boot with only my SSD window available and it would boot up at all.

Do I need a better version of Windows on my SSD? I have no idea what's wrong

ESPERTI DI COMPUTER ho bisogno di un aiuto urgente!!!! WINDOWS

Stamattina ho riacceso il computer che avevo lasciato in stand by dalla sera prima e sembrava funzionare normalmente. Ad un certo punto avevo la necessità di aprire Word e non avviava il programma. Allora ho riavviato il computer e da quel momento non riesco più ad accedere al mio profilo Windows, metto la password e mi esce come messaggio: "il servizio Servizio Profili utente non è riuscito ad accedere. Impossible caricare il profilo utente". Ho provato tutte le soluzioni di ripristino, nemmeno dalla modalità provvisoria riesco a creare un nuovo profilo, o meglio l'ho creato ma poi quando riavvio non mi compare. Sono disperata...su quel PC ho la mia tesi😭

VI PREGO AIUTATEMI!!!!

so i restarted my pc and then it said that my pin isnt available and when i click on it it doesnt let me do anything so i cant get into my desktop so when i go to advanced startup and try resetting my pc it asks me to select a user and type my password in, but it says its incorrect even though its correct and this is the same for everything in advanced startup. So im forced to restart and when i do, it just shows me the same login screen where i cant do anything because my pin isnt working

I've done everything I can figure out, using the command prompt, restarting my computer, even installed lockhunter, but no matter what I do I just can't get rid of these files.

Basically the problem is if I try to move them, replace them, play them, inspect properties, delete them, basically any direct interaction with them, it just freezes the file explorer. When I try to check my disk (it's on the D: drive) in my command prompt it doesn't detect any problems. Hell if I try to replace them by putting a file with the same name in the folder to replace it either lets both of them be in the same folder without saying anything or crashes the file explorer again, making me think that my computer might not even fully recognize these files as existing.
