Windows 10: HELP i did change the startup selection in msconfig to diagnostic on WINDOWS 11 and now i...

there the screen "Something happened and your pin isn't available right now " but when i press Set UP PIN nothing happens or some times it prompts me to download some app from MSstore and there is another system error "The system has detected an overrun of stack based buffers". i have tried loading through advance start up options but it doesn't show me the full options attached screenshot. Also i tried to fix it through regedit by loading a HIVE in SSOFTWARE and changing value of passwordless to 0 still nothing and now i can't even unload that hive as i did not close it properly.

cannot return to normal startup in MSCONFIG after running it in diagnostic startup.

Hi Gary,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand you are not able to boot to in normal mode. Sorry for the inconvenience this has caused.

Did you follow the below steps to enable the Normal startup?

• Press Windows + R keys from the Keyboard.
• Type msconfig and hit Enter.
• Click on the General tab.
• Select the Normal startup option.
• Click on Apply and Ok.
• Restart the system and check.

If yes, you may follow the below steps to check if the computer boots to selective startup:

• Press Windows + R keys from the Keyboard.
• Type msconfig and hit Enter.
• Select the General tab.
• Select the Selective startup option, check the box for load startup services, load startup items, use original boot configuration will be enabled.
• Restart the computer.

If it boots successfully to selective startup then you can boot to normal startup from selective startup.

Please check the above scenario and get back with the results.

Thank you.

 

Help with changes in MSCONFIG Selective Startup

Hi Greg... this 8s what I received from Company who made my Art Explosion Pro 3....keeps crashing when I use their Logostudio...I did it...can't undo

Hello Suzanne,

Thank you for contacting Nova Development Technical Support.

We apologize for the inconvenience. We will be glad to help you. There could be a possibility that a program running in the background is preventing your software from running correctly. Follow the steps below to check if the software will run correctly without
the startup programs.
1. Go into desktop mode by pressing the Windows and the letter “D” button at the same time.
2. Press and hold down the Windows and the “R” button on your keyboard. This should pull up the run window.
3. On the Run window, type in "msconfig" without the quotes in the open field.
4. Click the OK button. This will open the System Configuration window.
5. Click the Selective Startup option on General tab.
6. Unmark Load startup items. Click Apply button.
7. Click OK button. A message indicating that the computer needs to restart will come up. Click the Restart button.
Try to open the software again. If the same issue happens, you may uninstall and reinstall your software. If the steps above resolve the issue, it is likely that there is a startup program conflicting with your software. It is important that you switch
back to the normal startup after performing the steps listed above.
1. Repeat steps 1-4 from above.
2. Click the Normal Startup option on the General tab
3. Click Apply button. Then OK.
4. If this resolves the issue, it is likely that there is a startup program conflicting with your software.
When the computer finishes rebooting, all formerly disabled startup programs will be re-enabled.
Note: For more assistance, it is best that you get in touch with the computer manufacturer so they can help you determine the actual program that is causing the conflict.

If you have any further questions, please write back to us.

Thank you,

Joy
