    Windows 10 - BSOD ""a required device isn't connected or can't be accessed 0xc00000f"...


    Hi,


    Windows is trying to install latest updates I think it's 1903/1909, but during the installation process after the second or third reboot I get this dreaded BSOD. I can repair the machine using a Restore Point, but the problem returns the next time the Update installs. So, I must find out the root cause and fix it before the next iteration of the Update runs.


    I've booted the computer from a Recovery Drive USB, and am requesting to figure out the best way to determine why the BSOD is happening and how to fix it permanently.


    I appreciate any assistance this forum can provide.


    Thanks,


    Ivan

    :)

  2. Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.

    Cortana isn´t working

    When I hit enter, it did something, but there´s still no Cortana, even after restart. So I tried it again, but now it says that it failed, because it´s already installed and it´s working in PC. So it should work, but Cortana still isn´t here.

    Windows 10 - BSOD ""a required device isn't connected or can't be accessed 0xc00000f"...

    why isn't my internet connection being detected

    What do you mean by not detected, that you are not able to get an Internet connection or that that connection icon doesn't show up but you can still access the Internet? Also, what OS are you using? (XP SP3)

    Maybe Windows enabled the firewall for the LAN device (sometimes the firewall causes more problems than it solves), and if you are using a router (with NAT) you can safely turn off Windows firewall for that device only, you can do this by performing the following changes:
    • Leave Windows Firewall turned On

    • And now Disable it for the LAN only (un-checked box):

    Other solution might be related to DHCP, and that depends if you had a static IP addresses on your computer or the router assigned you an IP address via DHCP. You might wanna check out this related thread
