[DISCUSSION] Windows 11 Build 26x00 (PC) [24/25H2 Retail- GE-release]

as i know, this issue has last more than 3 years since build 25120, which release in june of 2022.

 

@panchop Run the System File Checker (SFC) tool to scan and repair corrupted system files:

• Open Command Prompt as administrator.
• Type sfc /scannow and press Enter.

 

not sure did a fresh install of 26100.4562 weird hangs going into the Gui for 1st time then after it is ok must be oobe working or something then I notice print to PDF is back

 

I still got "store component it's repairable" after doing in place upgrade. Might need to do a complete reinstall.

 

try the repair version/ reinstall in recovery, its slightly different in repairing stuff

Anyone on this build get errors opening Group Policy Editor?

 

? It worked good for me...

 

Sorry it worked good for me...

 

Yup i got this info screens at start, but it looks like it works normal after click ok on these.


I think it pops up when U have some parts of start menu or settings elements disabled via GPE

I have home disabled via GPE but it still work as before update.

 

Can you please give me some steps or commands I should try? Thank you

 

go into settings/system/recovery
choose fix problems using windows update, it will download a repair version of your current build


If you want a fresh look in update after the repair run this as a .bat file and reboot before choosing fix problems using windows update or after ..its up yo you
Running chkdsk before hand is a good practice before running repairs
You could try repair the component store:
Repair-WindowsImage -Online -RestoreHealth

Code:

@echo off
powershell -windowstyle hidden -command "Start-Process cmd -ArgumentList '/s,/c,net stop usosvc & net stop wuauserv & del %systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\Logs\edb.log & del /f /q C:\ProgramData\USOPrivate\UpdateStore\* & net start usosvc & net start wuauserv & UsoClient.exe RefreshSettings' -Verb runAs"

 

@boe323 thank you for that. I'll see what I can do, my windows 11 is not compliant as I use @Enthousiast script to install windows 11.

 

This one fixed GPE errors for me, try it.

Spoiler: GPE fix
