    3 Command Prompts pop up and close on startup.


    Sporadically after logging on with my user, three command prompts are popping up and closing again. On one of the command prompts, before it closes, I see the message "the system cannot find the file specified". I have checked the autostart programs but no unusual programs are listed there.Multiple of our users are experiencing this problem Windows 10 Enterprise Version 20H2. This started since we installed M365 Apps for Enterprise / Teams. Is this something related to Teams maybe?

    :)

    command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

    Would I just follow the same steps within safe mode after hooking up to the other system?

    Installation media boots to command prompt

    I've just booted from known working install media to see exactly what it does when booting. The sequence of events is...

    1. Windows logo on a black screen
    2. circling dots appear beneath the logo
    3. light blue 'Please wait' screen with circling dots
    4. a command prompt window (very briefly)
    5. the initial Setup page appears

    Do you see steps 1-3? If so, it appears you have stopped at step 4, suggesting that something on the disc cannot be read.

    Does the disc boot properly in another machine? If so, try cleaning the laptop's drive lens then try booting from the disc again.

    If not, make new install media with Microsoft's Media Creation Tool, either as a bootable USB, on an ISO that you can burn to another disc. At Step 8 in Option One of this tutorial you can choose between making a USB or an ISO.
