  1. Windows Connection Manager service hanging on start


    Hello, I have had a very tricky problem with my Windows 10 system since Thursday.


    After a reboot my WiFi adaptor would not connect. I traced the problem to service the WLAN autoconfig service depends on, Windows Connection Manager wcmsvc, which is not starting correctly. When I view it in the services window, it's simply hanging on start. I have tried restoring the service in the registry, checking that relevant files are not quarantined by antivirus and various other things, but haven't gotten anywhere.


    My ethernet connection is unaffected. I will need to use the WiFi soon so help is appreciated!


    My system is a Lenovo thinkpad laptop, running Windows version 10.0.10240.


    Cheers,


    Alex

    :)

  2. Unable to Connect to Logical Disk Manager Service Error in Computer Management

    WELL, I'll be an "S.O.B."! I got it... lol, just now!

    Apparently, & I am going to record this & BOOKMARK/FAV it in my webbrowsers as "HOW TO FIX LOGICAL DISK MANAGER HASSLES" (lol), it is SOMETHING in my services!

    You need THIS list of them running (provided you have them online that is, some OS won't have SOME of these (this is Windows Server 2003) & some are 3rd party & won't matter):


    Windows Connection Manager service hanging on start SERVICESNEEDEDFORLOGICALDISKMGT2SERVICES.jpg


    * NO SAFE MODE REQUIRED - THIS FIXED IT, PURELY SERVICES RELATED... oddly, no "dependencies" other than the ones the services need (RPC & Plug n Play) are listed in the 2 services for Logical Disk Management... it's like MS missed (somehow) the fact that there IS other dependencies on other services than what they list!

    That list above is PROBABLY "overkill" & it is only a fraction of that list above, but the point is there... with ALL of those active? Logical Disk Manager "gets its act together" again & works!

    APK

    P.S.=> BRB, with screenshot of services & their startup status needed for this to work, in case anyone else hits this... it is a real you-know-what if you can't get to a disk to format it, lol... so, recording it for everyone's sake! apk

    Windows Connection Manager service hanging on start

    Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) service is unable to start automatically on boot?

    Hi,

    We suggest that you try the troubleshooting steps that YanisLukes
    did to resolve the same issue.

    To update your network adapter, you can follow these steps:


    • Select the Start button, type Device Manager, and select
      it from the list of results.

    • Expand the category where your device is located, then right-click on the name of your device, and select Update Driver Software.

    • Select Search automatically for updated driver software.

    If Windows doesn't find a new driver, you can try looking for one on the device manufacturer's website and follow their instructions.

    If updating the device driver doesn't work, we suggest that you reinstall the driver: 


    • Open Device Manager.

    • Right-click on the name of the device.

    • Select Uninstall. 

    • Restart your PC and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

    If the issue still persists, we suggest that you follow the troubleshooting steps provided here:
    How to Troubleshoot Internet Connection Sharing Problems.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Regards.
