General Computer Support / Windows Defender Fatal Error on Windows 10 Home Single Language

« on: January 25, 2019, 02:19:27 am »

In the past, I did run Windows Repair version 4.4.0 and 4.4.1 with all repair options enabled in Safe Boot without any errors. Everything was fine including Windows Defender.

Then recently, I have an error code 0x80004005 on Windows 10 Home Single Language. So before the repair process, I update the Windows Repair software to the latest version (4.4.2), I run it in Safe Mode, to repair this error code 0x80004005 (Can't Copy/Rename/Paste/Delete some folders and files).

Amazingly, it can fix the error. But apparently, my Windows Defender has a fatal error. It can't scan anything, the Real Time Protection is off and I can't turn it on. The Right Click option to scan folders/files is gone, etc. See my picture attachments for more info.

I do all kind of these methods so many times to repair this Windows Defender fatal error:
- CHKDSK
- SFC /SCANNOW
- Run Windows Repair twice in Safe Mode.

Unfortunately... Nothing works.

I like Windows Defender very much. It is fast and small. It is a very good antivirus/firewall/antimalware.

  Yeah, thanks. I will create System Image after I buy new external HDD.

I think it is very important for users to run repair software in Safe Mode to avoid unnecessary errors.

Maybe run the repair program again in Safe Mode could fix it. I ran it twice in Safe Mode via Administrator account, then enable almost all settings in repair software (see attactment pictures, yes it took a very long time to fix the error). It can fix error on my Windows 10.

But I don't know it works or not with this kind of error in Windows Defender. Just try it if you want.

Never mind, maybe next time I will turn it on before I install new apps or make significant change to my system. I think that System Protection is always monitoring Explorer.exe and TrustedInstaller.exe, so I guess that I was wrong. But System Protection creates a big file in Drive C, right? My SSD's storage is small, so I turn it off.

I'd advise you to turn your System Protection on as you never know when you may need it and you should start creating system images as a further safeguard.

The later versions of the program auto create registry back ups prior to running the repairs but in your pic you didn't have that box checked, so it may not have created a registry back up for you to revert with.

The repair program creates an error on my system but I've found that running the repair program a second time resolved that error, so running the program again with the latest version may also resolve yours but create a manual restore point before running the program.

The program also has the option of creating a restore point but in a number of cases, while it says it has created one, it hasn't physically created it - so do that yourself.

Wow, I rUN the newest version of this repair windows, voila my error is GONE now. everything works normal. Thanks. Wonderfull app. Even my Windows 10 goes faster  and smoother than before. Btw, I don't like to turn System Protection on because it will slow my system. Boggan, thanks a lot mate.

This problem may have arisen because you are using an old version of the program.

The later versions have come about because of needing to update to mainly keep up with the changes to Permissions as Win 10 has been updated.

I would suggest that you try your restore points back to before you ran the repair program to see if that resolves.

What was the reason you ran the repair program ?

I always create a Macrium system image before test running the program should it have adverse effects on my system.

Thanks Boggin for your advise. Unfortunately I did turn my System Restore off on my Windows 10. I don't create system image too.

I ran the repair program because I couldn't start Nox Player Android Emulator on my Windows 10. I thought my system had some errors so I ran the repair program.

So... Should I run the new version of repair program for better result?

General Computer Support / Windows 10 Start Menu File System Error (-2144926975) [SOLVED]

Hello guys! FYI, this error happens after I used Windows Repair Software.
My Genuine OS Windows 10 Home Single Language Version 1803 has File system error (-2144926975) when I click these buttons in Start Menu:

Documents
Downloads
Pictures
Music
Videos

*Except: File Explorer button is functioning fine in Start Menu. Other buttons are working fine too.

This error happens ONLY in Start Menu options. I open those Folders (Documents, Downloads, Pictures, Music, Videos) in Windows Explorer, everything is fine, I can access the folders and all the files inside it.

I did all kind of these commands but nothing works:

CHKDSK
SFC
DISM


I also add a New User Account, but it still has a same error in New User Account.

What should I do? Should I reset my Windows 10? Please help...
Is there any script (regedit) to repair this error?

Thanks.
