Windows 10: Intermittent BSoDs after a power outage, what is going on?

My sister's PC got turned off during a power outage two days ago no surge, nothing is fried, and ever since then it has had intermittent BSoDs.First time, it blue screened, and windows failed to even boot into the recovery screen, and after it restarted itself twice, it went straight to bios. After turning the PC off, then on again, it blue screened, but successfully booted into the recovery screen. There I tried to repair windows, but it failed to do so. I restarted again, and windows somehow successfully booted up?? Then, about 30 minutes later, another blue screen when she opened google,

Power Outage

Hi there, I just had a power outage and i'm worried that my windows installation will be damaged. I have an SSD. Should there be any steps I should do now? What should I check?

 

Power outage caused programs to disappear and/or become disfunctional

Hello,

There are few factors that can contribute to the issue you are encountering. Power outages can result in data loss, corruption of folders/files, and programs not functioning.

To assist you further, kindly provide more details by answering the following questions:

• Which browser are you using to check the passwords and favorites section? Provide the list of browsers where you encountered the concern.
• Have you tried using another account to verify if the programs are still missing on your program list?

There is a possibility that the drive index has been corrupted. We highly suggest that you check your hard drive and scan for errors by following these steps:

• Open This PC on File Explorer and locate your hard drive.
• Right-click and choose Properties.
• Under Tools tab, click on Check Now button.

After scanning the hard drive, hidden files and folders, as well as lost data can be restored.

Additionally, we advise running the System File Checker as another way for us to check or scan for data corruptions in Windows system files that can be affected by the power outage. To do so, follow the steps on this article:

Using System File Checker in Windows 10.

Let us know of any details pertaining to your concern.

 

PC intermittently rebooting as if power outage?

Hi,

I have a relatively new HP desktop computer which occasionally reboots (about twice a month)?

It is as if there has been a power cut/outage when it happens because it is so sudden!

I have been trying to keep a record of events in event viewer to establish why it happens but there does not seem to be any similarities. For example, the latest shows that a critical error happened about this time for a Kernal-Power 41 (63), but on prior
shutdowns, errors included HttpEvents 15300, and 15301, but also 10016 Distributed.Com?

Please can someone help me try & find out what is going on, and how to resolve it?

Thank you for your time.

Ian.
