  1. [SC] StartService: Failure 1056: A copy of this service is already running.


    After upgrading my Windows 10 to 11, whenever I boot up my laptop, approximately 1 minute later, three cmd windows briefly pop up with this message. I was only able to catch them after recording the screen. I spent the whole day with Microsoft support, only for the representative to eventually disconnect and close the ticket without a solution, as their actions, which basically consisted of updating Windows, had no effect.Can anyone help me with this?

    :)

  3. I have an error 1450: "Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service" when running `sc start MyDriverName`

    I have an error 1450: "Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service" when running `sc start KMDFDriverIOCTL`
    (KMDFDriverIOCTL - is my driver that i wrote with wdk).

    The last time the driver worked was yesterday
    I have disabled driver test signature verification and am trying to run my driver.

    My steps:
    1) Run cmd as Administrator
    2) Enter next command: `sc start KMDFDriverIOCTL`
    cmd output:
    ```
    [SC] StartService: error: 5:

    Access is denied.

    ```
    3) Trying to run the driver a second time: `sc start KMDFDriverIOCTL`

    cmd output:
    ```
    [SC] StartService: error: 1450:

    Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.

    ```

    I got error 1450 on each successive attempt, but error 5 only came up on the first attempt to run the driver.

    How can i solve this problem? Thanks in advance.

    Start Windows Defender in Command Prompt with 'sc start WinDefend Enable'. Received [sc] StartService FAILED 577: error message. Windows 10

    Tried to start Windows Defender in Command Prompt with 'sc start WinDefend Enable'. Received

    [sc] StartService FAILED 577:

    Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file. A recent hardware of software change might have

    installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown

    source.

    I think this is related to failure to start several apps, like Calculator, and failure to read files from

    DVD RW Drive. Lots to fix on my PC. Thinking of going back to Windows 7.
