You know how to go to WinRE? There's a lot of ways you can do it, look some up and try one that works for you.

#

Easiest way: try clicking the restart button while holding down shift

#

We just need to somehow get to a working command prompt

blissful rock
#

ok lemme try that

#

what do i click

#

usb device troubleshoot or continue

When you get to a screen like this, choose troubleshoot

Advanced options -> command prompt

#

lean badge
#

Type in regedit and press enter

Navigate to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services

If the services hive opens up, then that means that your OS is working. If the services hive here is missing, then your Windows install may be corrupted, and you may have to reinstall windows

#

You should see a bunch of folders inside

blissful rock
#

yeah i see them

lean badge
#

Now depending on which login method you use, you should see one of these
KeyIso
Netlogon
seclogon
VaulSvc

blissful rock
#

i see keyolso

lean badge
#

Look for the "Start" key inside it, double click on it and set the value to 3

blissful rock
#

i also see netlogon

lean badge
#

Do it for netlogon too

#

Repeat for all 4 if you see them

#

After you have done this, restart and see if the issue is fixed

#

Exact spelling and case

blissful rock
#

lean badge
#

I'm out of ideas then :/ sorry about that

blissful rock
#

bruh i wouldn’t even mind reinstalling windows if i had a picture of my home screen 😭😭 i don’t remeber what to download

lean badge
#

You can use a bootable linux USB to salvage the data off it in the meantime, in case it isn't encrypted

#

Or just plug the drive into another computer

#

The files should still stay there

blissful rock
#

it’s fine i’ll just reset windows

#

bruh

#

i wish this stupid valorant problem would stop happening though

#

do you know how to fix that 😭

lean badge
#
