Dear diary,
Today is day 3 of Windows 11 for me, and after about an hour of gaming, everything got laggy. I thought it was an AV scanner taking its sweet time kind of lag, but then.... I couldn't switch back to the desktop, I couldn't launch the task manager, it was just a solid frozen brick, and then when I unpaused this game to go back into it.... it was frozen too.

So here I am , with a frozen machine, so I give up and attempt a hard reboot........ yep, your fucked too. Windows auto repair kicks in, and it freezes too.

So now I'm here, with a brick of a fucking machine, wondering wtf could have gone so wrong.

Finally, I've made it to the failed boot screen,

> bootrec /fixboot
permission denied.

🤔 dafuq you smoking?

Fine

> sfc /scannow
Permission denied

Ok.... I don't think I want to know how this works.

> chkdsk /f /r /x C:
Yay something fucking runs
.
.
.
no issues 🤨

Fuck it, reboot.

Oh, now you want to fucking boot you piece of shit.
Now to understand how the fuck you can get a permission denied when your running CMD before boot 😐

rant

    Your PCs seems to be a severe case of Windows update...

    @electrineer I like to live dangerously, although this wasn't what I had in mind 🙃

    A blue screen would have been somewhat better but just a complete lockup, I don't think I've seen that since the ME days 🥲

    Confucius says, never touch Windows before the first service pack, and ideally not even then.

    @Fast-Nop Confucius (just like many of the Greek philosophers) was all about deriving truth from basic elementary principles, using metaphors and tautologies to train the mind, about diligent work and generosity within communities -- and against blind trust in authority to acquire knowledge, wealth, convenience or comfort.

    So I'm pretty sure Confucius would compile his own kernel.

    @C0D4 You're probably wrong and you know it.

    @theKarlisK maybe you missed the bit where I was running CMD pre-boot, there is only an admin cmd at that point.

    And yes, I did change from the x drive (memory mount) to c: before running those commands, but getting permission denied as admin and on a physical drive, that's new.

    This isn't my first borked boot in life 😐 but I exported a little more stability then this from something being thrown down everyone's throat by Microsoft.

    ---

    For those playing at home, turns out a kernel panic occurred attempting to run an update in the background.... this isn't a great start.

    @rEaL-jAsE roll back you say....... 👀
    Where's the ranting fun in that?

    General availability.

    The nice term invented to specifically not guarantee any form of stability.

    It's available for download, we do not claim any stability.

    :) It's fabulous how this simple two word construct has so much meaning and an "obvious hidden message" behind it.

    I’ve had it on my laptop for a few weeks now and to be honest I’m really liking it.
    I don’t play games on it so I can’t comment on that, but for everything else it seems miles faster than windows 10

    @TrevorTheRat Windows 11 isn't faster than WIndows 10. It's just that Windows is always faster than even the very same Windows after a fresh install because Windows is a misdesigned piece of shit that bogs itself down over time.

    @theKarlisK that's fair, the avg user is incompetent at best these days.

    @Fast-Nop it "seems" faster, even from a upgrade path and not a full reinstall, but that's probably some voodoo magic or pre-indexing to make it seem that way.

    @C0D4 Benchmarks don't confirm that, except for a dirty little trick upon booting where the desktop appears earlier, but then takes longer to be usable so that it's a wash.

    aren't permissions part of NTFS?
    which would mean you're trying to invoke permission-locked files from some anonymous boot user or something?

    in any case, fuck win11.
    10 finally got good, and now i should replace it by another hurried untested mess? nothanks.

    @rEaL-jAsE still using it.
    It hasn't shit its self again since.

    I get the feeling MS is trying to loose their market share with this bullshit, who knows W11 just might be the final version of windows 😅

    The file manager I've replaced so it's not so huge, like I don't need several lines of padding between folders I just want to see what I'm looking for.

    I literally only got Windows 11 because I cared so little about my gaming rig. I couldn't bear to use it as my daily driver. And for someone who only gets to interact with it sometimes, it's nice!
