My computer is down because of the all in one repair, please help me.
ParanormalBanana:
Thank you.
So I used the kaspersky rescue disk and upon entering the text mode, it showh a warning :
"Your computer's operating system has been shut down incorrectly. File system is going to be mounted. The procedure may cause damage to it. To avoid file system corruption, you are advised to shut down the operation system correclty before using Kaspersky Rescue Disk."
Do I continue or does this indicate something else that I should be able to do before ?
Boggin:
I've never had that but I think it would be best to take heed of the warning and if you are able to create install media, then I'd go that route.

Hello.
So here's the history since last time :
I was able to get my system back to where it was before running the all in one repair by restoring windows to a previous version of windows...
I was using insider builds and I happened to have installed one right before the event, so by using this function I could go back.
BUT...
I still had a very unstable system which was the original reason for using all in one repair.
So, I did a series of malware/rootkit scans and found nothing.
After that, I decided to run the all in one repair one more time.
Here are the steps :
1 : I went to system restore and freed up 50 Go to allocate (10%) to it and I then created not one, but TWO system restores, which took about 10 Go of disk space and I made sure they were created.
2 : I did a power reset of my whole apartment, cut the whole power out reset all devices and then I started ONLY the computer...
3 : I ran All in one repair in Safe mode with networking, as commended...
4 : All steps are going well, everything looks good, chkdsk and sfc scannow find nothing wrong, then I select the "all repairs" preset and it starts...
5 : I go to bed, come back and the black screen with white cursor and windows aero style timer are the only things I see (and I can move it)
So I'm back to the beginning but I'm thinking HEY NO PROBLEM I MADE SURE TO BE ABLE TO RUN SYSTEM RESTORE....
6 : Run system restore : NO RESTORES FOUND !
So my two restores have been deleted by all in one repair at some point, so now I'm pretty CERTAIN my problem is caused by all in ojne repair, but my safe return has also been burned by it 100% sure..
Of course I tried to use the go back to previous windows version stuff but it failed for no reason and no error code was given.
Now, I've been trying for hours to use the media creation tool to make a USB flash drive of Windows 10 to follow your instructions, but I am unable to !
The media creation tool gives me an error code i'll give to you later when it gives it to me again, but for now, I would very much appreciate it if you could link me to a windows 10 professional English x64 legit iso that I could use and maybe some new advice on how to deal wih this situation I've got a week's work late to do on that machine with a deadline on monday I really need your help sorry for the long post.
Boggin:
Using Insider builds could be the reason why you are getting these black screens.
The program is only tested on released versions of Win 10 and somewhere Shane has warned about using it on Insider builds.
Do you have anything on that machine that you want to keep as a clean install looks to be the next solution and then through Settings you can go back to an Insider build.
I got an error when I was trying to create a bootable USB so had to opt for clicking on ISO file as for the DVD method but used Windows USB/DVD Burner Tool to create the bootable USB from the downloaded ISO.
I had to go back to the Download tool now page to access that option again.
You need to select Save when downloading the ISO file and it normally puts it into my Docs folder for some reason rather than my Downloads folder.

Yes in fact everything on that machine is important to keep, I can't wipe the disk but I could do a "reset" while keeping documents and a list of programs but couldn't there be another solution ? isn't there a way to get back the system restores that were wiped for no reason at all ?
