Windows 10: Services.msc mistake

I made a big mistake. My pc was only recognizing 16gb of the 32gb of RAM I have installed. I tried quite a few fixes with no luck. I finally read something about services.msc where you can check “limit ram” and it said something like 16000 so I changed it to 32000 and rebooted the PC. As I was about to reboot I noticed it changed the 32000 to 0 but didn’t think much of it. Anyway, I’m now stuck in a loop, it will not boot up. I finally found where you can go into BCDedit and delete truncatememory so I did that. Everyone I saw on forums that did that said “wow that worked!” Anyway, it did not work for me. The only other computer we have is a MAC air so I tried to create a boot usb for windows 10 and everything seemed fine but when I try to boot by that its just a black screen with a blinking cursor (which from reading sounds like a super common problem). I don’t have a DVD burner so I can’t go that route. Any other ideas at all? Thank you so much.

No printers work after Windows 10 anniversary update

Since you have reinstalled the drivers from HP several times, we would suggest that try to check if the print spooler dependency services are running.

Here are some steps for you to follow:

• Click Start, type services.msc and hit Enter.
• Scroll down to Print spooler.
• Right click and click properties, click the tab “Dependencies”
• Note all of the dependent services listed, and then close the Print Spooler Properties window.
• Repeat the above steps for the dependent services noted.

Thank you.
