  1. Did I break my computer?


    So when I got home from work I turned on my pc and was presented with a blue screen. My mom told me the power flickered and that that could be the reason, so I restarted and forgot about it. I was trying to open Microsoft store and it kept crashing every time I tried to open it. I went to the website called windows report (at least that's what I think it was) and it told me to enter this into powershell

    Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)AppXManifest.xml”}

    I decided it was safe because I'm totally capable of making that decision Anyway it flashed a bunch of red text that said something like "missing" and "file not found" When that didn't work I decided I'll just restart my PC and see if that will work. It didn't, and every time the PC tried to boot it presented me with a blue screen. We tried automatic repair/startup repair, system restore and nothings working.

    Now I'm lost, did I break my PC with the powershell code or was it just the power flickering? Did I do this? Is it fixable

  2. Windows 10 Pro and Ergnomic Break Reminder

    Hi,



    Apologies for the late reply.



    Do you remember installing any break reminder software?



    It looks like it is a pop up from a break reminder software.



    I suggest you to look for this in Programs in features and uninstall it if do not use it.



    Try the following steps:


    • Press Windows + R keys to open Run Command

    • Type Appwiz.cpl and hit enter

    • Search for the programs and un-install it.


    Regards,

  3. Why did the startup window get cleared?

    I didn't missed any step, the list was gone and gone , even after using lot of programs the programs were not listed in that list.
