Windows 10: All my admin tools, notepad, installation wizards, and more all crash after 2-5 seconds...

This has been happening for a while now, ever since I removed my old hard drive. It didn't bother me until now. I have tried every solution online but nothing is working.I have tried these:sfc /scan nowDISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealthand I have tried running the troubleshooter but that crashes as well. There are no error codes anywhere.Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,Sam

XML Tools for Notepad++: libXML and/or libXSLT missing

It looks like there is a compatibility issue with the XML Tools Plugin and 7.6+ Notepad++ versions.

Basically, you have two options:

• If you are still on NPP 7.5 you can manually install the XML tools (2.4.9.x Unicode) from SF here and avoid auto-updates of the plugins until you are ready to move
  
• or you start fresh now with NPP 7.6+ and use the new built-in Plugin Admin as suggested by the other answers using XML Tools 2.4.11+ (it seems there is no 2.4.10).
  

You can find some interesting pointers related to this case in this NPP community thread.

 

notepad

04sall is the name of the document that Notepad has opened. Usually Notepad is meant to open "text" or "source code" files, however it can open other types of files. Now relating back to your issue, the fact that 04sall does not have file format means
that it used by a program or Windows, and could be quite large. This might have caused Notepad to freeze. You will have to force close Notepad, to do that please follow the following steps.

Step 1: Press the buttons "Ctrl, alt, and delete" simultaneously. A list of options should come up. Click on Task Manager from the options that display. Note, if Task Manager is unable to open OR pressing the buttons "Ctrl, alt, and delete" simultaneously
does not do anything, jump to Step 5.

Step 2: In task manager select Notepad. Now click the "End Task" button. If a confirmation message comes up, then click "End Task" in the confirmation message. If Notepad closes then problem is solved. If Notepad does not close please repeat this step.
If repeating this step after 5 times does not work, go on to Step 3.

Step 3: Select Notepad on task manager, right click on the selected Notepad in Task Manager. A drop down menu should come up. Select "Go to Details". After doing this DO NOT click on anything yet. Go to step 4.

Step 4: There should already be something highlighted, right click the highlighted object, a drop down menu should appear. Click "End Task" option from that menu. A prompt will come up, click the "End Process" option on the prompt. If Notepad closes then
problem is solved. If Notepad does not close, please repeat this step. If repeating this step does not work, got to step 5.

Step 5: Hard shutdown the computer, by pressing onto the power button. DO NOT LET GO OF the power button until the computer power indication sign has turned off. Now turn the computer back on. If the issue is gone, then problem is fixed. If "04sall-notepad"
opens up again on startup, please reply back stating that.

 

Notepad on Windows 7\

Suggestion would be uninstall then new install on Win7. Maybe an older version would work better? A list, maybe Version 7?
