    command prompt can't start


    Hi,

    I am using windows 10. it's updates, and i got that new thing called windows shell( i guess its instead of cmd)

    my problem is that command prompt doesn't run.

    when i press on the cmd or try to run it from the run window, as administrator, or even try "start cmd" from powershell, the cmd is appearing for half a second and disappears.


    i tried everything on the internet:

    1. tried to update the network drivers.

    2. tried to take a shortcut from sys32

    3. tried at regedit

    4. tried running maleware, some guys said its a virus...

    5. tried to check if i am an administrator, but i am the only user on this computer so its a yes...

    6..

    7..

    ......

    i am just out of any ideas and seems like people doesn't know anything about this windows shell

    does it change cmd? or cmd should run too?


    please help

    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.

    command prompt can't start

    command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

    I am repairing a laptop for a friend and I need to access windows in safe mode and the owner has forgotten the password to the main user. I tried logging on with the administrator profile in safe mode but it is not showing up so I was going to use command prompt in safe mode with command prompt but command prompt will not open when I boot that option. Does anyone have any hints for me to figure this out?
