Repair Windows 10 using USB drive

Original Title: recovery help

I installed a recent update to my windows 10 pro 64 bit machine. The first problem after the update is that I lost some of the icons on my task bar as well as control of anything on it including the start button. I did the SFC Scannow under the command line to correct the issue, which it didn’t then tried the DISM command function which didn’t help either so I tried to go back to an earlier restore point and they have disappeared. So I tried to complete a reset of the machine and keep my files with no success. Now when I boot up the machine it’s stuck on trying to repair and diagnose the machine boot loop and cannot reset the machine. Obviously I need to keep the files that are on the machine so what I would like to know is can I run windows 10 from a USB drive long enough to recover the files from the drives on the machine before I do another clean install and as alternative repair the OS from a USB flashdrive

I suggest you to perform start up repair from Windows Recovery Environment. Follow the below procedure and check if it resolves the issue.

To get to Windows Startup Settings in the Windows Recovery Environment. You may follow the steps provided below and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

I am having the exact same issue. I tried to create a DVD but got error code 0x80004005 six times so I gave up on the DVD idea. Then I created a USB and it at least functions normally! However, I just tried the Start Up Repair. let it run and then tried to boot my system. Gets to a light blue screen with the White dotted circle turning and has been that way for hours. After almost a full day finally the opening Picture comes up. I click on the pic to send me to the sign in page, then sign in. Well it still does not load!

I have been dual booting with my system. I have an SSD with Windows 7 and a HDD with a version of Windows 10 Pro from the Insider Program. Since I knew windows 7 license owners are to get a free upgrade to windows 10 I did some asking around in Microsoft Community and was told by some monitors that I would be able to upgrade my Windows 7 and still be able to use the Windows 10 Pro on the other drive and dual boot. I was dual booting to begin with and this computer was running fantastic until I made that upgrade attempt. Now I am stuck with this issue that no one seems to know how to fix. What are my options here? I believe one issue here is the fact that my internet will not connect since I can not get windows to load. I believe that is needed to actually fix this issue but I am not sure. For some reason that went away as well. I say that because the light blue screen with the circle I believe is the computer trying to access to update the Windows 10 Pro to get the load back. I have clue how to enter safe mode to see if I will be able to at least get the internet back up and running. Any clues??

If I must leave the Insider Program to resolve this I will need to know what all I must do to stop being a member and get my free copy of Windows 10 to replace the windows 7 if that is my only option. I do not want to stop but I need my PC back running as it was before this fiasco. Any help at all anyone can give me to get this fixed would be wonderful. I am stuck running windows 7 and time is running out. HELP. Getting real Frustrated over this mess!!

By the way I forgot to mention there have never been any error codes during the repair attempts. I also tried using the software in bedded within windows to fix itself with the same results. I also tried Reset option as well. Nothing works.

4 лучших загрузочных образа для восстановления Windows 10

4 лучших загрузочных образа для восстановления Windows 10

Случайные сбои, ошибки и синие экраны смерти, к сожалению, являются неотъемлемой частью Windows. Так что вы просто обязаны иметь в арсенале хотя бы парочку образов для восстановления системы.

1. Hiren’s BootCD PE x64

Hiren’s BootCD остается одним из лучших дисков для восстановления Windows. Однако, в ноябре 2012 года этот инструмент перестал официально обновляться. Теперь надежная группа поклонников Hiren’s BootCD обновляет диск самыми последними и самыми мощными утилитами восстановления.

Hiren’s BootCD фокусируется на исправлении систем Windows. Спасательный диск содержит множество утилит, включая обнаружение вредоносных программ и руткитов, антивирусное сканирование, очистку временных файлов, резервное копирование данных и драйверов, аппаратное сканирование, сканирование разделов, формирование и сохранение образов, и даже взлом паролей. Вы также можете использовать загрузочный компакт-диск Hiren’s BootCD для перепрошивки BIOS или, при необходимости, CMOS.

Кроме того, чтобы идти в ногу со временем, Hiren’s BootCD теперь базируется в Windows 10 Preinstallation Environment (PE). PE — это облегченная версия операционной системы, которая в основном используется для поиска и устранения неисправностей и обычно сопровождается дополнительными инструментами восстановления и спасения.

2. Kyhi’s Recovery Drive

Kyhi’s Recovery Drive, также известный под громоздким названием Windows 10 Recovery Tools-Bootable PE Rescue Disk, представляет собой пользовательскую среду Windows 10 PE. В данном случае, пользователь TenForum Kyhi разработал среду Windows 10 PE, наполненную инструментами восстановления системы.

Kyhi’s Recovery Drive поставляется с огромным набором инструментов для удаления вирусов и вредоносного ПО, восстановления дисков, управления разделами и сканерами, работы в сети, удаленного просмотра и VNC, резервного копирования и восстановления образов и многое другое.

Kyhi’s Recovery Drive очень прост в использовании для многих пользователей. Среда восстановления выглядит точно так же, как установка Windows 10.

3. The Ultimate Boot CD

Как и Hiren’s BootCD, UBCD устраняет неполадки в системах Windows и Linux с помощью множества полезных утилит. Целью UBCD является «объединение как можно большего количества диагностических инструментов в один загрузочный CD».

UBCD является абсолютно бесплатным для скачивания, поэтому будьте осторожны с любым сайтом, пытающимся взять с вас за это плату.

4. Knoppix

Невозможно иметь список дисков для восстановления без включения в него дедушки всех дисков: Knoppix. Этот Linux Live CD предоставляет полностью функциональную операционную систему.

Операционная система Knoppix включает в себя около 1000 пакетов программного обеспечения для сканирования, включая инструменты поиска неисправностей, аппаратного анализа, восстановления данных, браузеры, инструменты манипуляции изображениями и медиаплееры.

DVD версия Knoppix известна как «Maxi» и объединяет в себе более 2 600 различных программных продуктов в 4,7 ГБ. Большинство программ, входящих в оба пакета Knoppix, являются либо свободными, либо открытыми.

Create a system repair disc

System recovery options can help you repair Windows if a serious error occurs. To use system recovery options, you’ll need a Windows installation disc or access to the recovery options provided by your computer manufacturer. If you don’t have either of those choices, you can create a system repair disc to access system recovery options.

Open Backup and Restore by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Maintenance, and then clicking Backup and Restore.

In the left pane, click Create a system repair disc, and then follow the steps. If you’re prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

Note: If you’re prompted to insert a Windows installation disc, it means that the files needed to create the system repair disc can’t be found on your computer. Insert a Windows 7 installation disc.

Insert the system repair disc into your CD or DVD drive.

Restart your computer using the computer’s power button.

If prompted, press any key to start the computer from the system repair disc.

If your computer isn’t configured to start from a CD or DVD, check the information that came with your computer. You might need to change your computer’s BIOS settings.

Choose your language settings, and then click Next.

Select a recovery option, and then click Next.

Tip: Print these instructions and keep them in a safe location with your system repair disc.

Start your computer from a Windows 7 installation disc or USB flash drive

You might need to start, or boot, your computer using the Windows 7 installation disc or a USB flash drive if you want to:

Install or reinstall Windows 7.

Recover Windows 7 from a serious error. If your computer won’t start Windows at all, you can access Startup Repair and other tools in the System Recovery Options menu from the Windows 7 installation disc or USB flash drive. These tools can help you get Windows 7 running again.

Note: If you use a Tablet PC or other computer with a touchscreen, you might need to attach a keyboard and mouse in order to use Startup Repair and other tools in the System Recovery Options menu.

Turn on your computer, insert the Windows 7 installation disc or USB flash drive, and then turn off your computer.

Restart your computer.

Press any key when prompted to do so, and then follow any instructions that appear.

When the Install Windows page appears, click Install now to begin the installation process or click Repair your computer to access system recovery options.

Follow the instructions.

If the Install Windows page doesn’t appear, and you aren’t asked to press any key, you might have to specify that your computer uses its DVD drive or a USB flash drive as the first startup device. To do this, you need to change settings in the computer’s basic input/output system (BIOS).

Note: Most newer computers can start from a USB device, but some older computers might not have this capability. For more information, check the documentation that came with your computer or go to the manufacturer’s website.

Before you change BIOS settings, check the information that came with your computer or go to the computer manufacturer’s website. Specific procedures for accessing the BIOS and changing settings can differ depending on your computer’s manufacturer, or you might be able to choose which startup device your computer uses without changing BIOS settings.

Warning: Be careful when changing BIOS settings. The BIOS interface is designed for advanced users, and it’s possible to change a setting that could prevent your computer from starting correctly.

Turn on your computer, insert the Windows 7 installation disc or USB flash drive, and then restart your computer.

Newer computers often display a startup (or boot) menu. On the startup menu, choose «BIOS setup,» or «BIOS settings,» or something similar.

Procedures vary depending on the BIOS manufacturer. Usually, you must press a key (such as F2, F12, Delete, Esc) or a key combination immediately after you turn on your computer but before Windows starts. If the Windows logo appears, you need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer again.

The BIOS setup screen appears. On the BIOS setup screen, choose the option called «Boot order,» or something similar. Boot order settings might also be listed under «Advanced settings» or something similar.

Select your DVD drive or USB flash drive as the first startup device. (The USB flash drive might be listed under «Removable devices» or something similar.)

Save the setting changes, and then exit the BIOS.

Restart your computer, and then start Windows 7 from the installation disc or USB flash drive as previously described.
