I researched and realized I needed to delete my registry keys for Edge: did that, restarted computer, and absolutely nothing worked to removal of it.

  2. laptop wont start up..says "critical process died"

    Hi Diane,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    We regret the inconvenience caused to you.


    • What is the make and model of the computer?

    • Have you installed any Windows updates prior to this issue?

    The Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) error occurs due to the program that uses multiple processes to interact with your processor. If the processor is unable to process these multiple processes properly, it generates the CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED error.
    Sometimes this error can be quite critical as it could damage your hard disk, memory or in rare circumstances, your processor.

    Let us try the following steps and check if it helps.

    Step 1: Power Drain.

    • Shut down the laptop by power the system off.
    • Take out the battery from the laptop and disconnect the charger.
    • Press the power button on your laptop while it’s disconnected from any power source.
    • This will drain existing power from laptop.
    • Put the battery in and restart the laptop.
    • Login to safe mode if it gives you multiple prompts otherwise login to normal mode.
    • Once you are able to login restart the computer using restart option from windows.

    Step 2: Let us try to repair the Windows using the ISO file.

    Refer to the following link to download Windows 10 ISO file and create installation media.

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

    Once your media is ready follow the steps.

    • Insert media (DVD or USB drive).
    • Click on Troubleshoot.
    • Click on Advanced options.
    • Click on Startup repair.
    • Follow the on screen instructions.
