Thank you much sir for your helpful video. But I have a question. I have a system that has windows 8.1 that I built on my own. When I access the Windows RE console, I can not find the options such as refresh the pc, using command prompt, and more. Is it because it was never got installed? The other question is when you install windows, does it also install WinRE along with it? Thank you in advance.
Thank you! When I first typed “reagentc/enable” it said “unable to update boot configuration data” then someone in the comments had said they did “reagentc/repair” then they did “reagentc/enable” and it was successful!
You were more help in 5 minutes that the tech support agent was in 45 minutes. She was not able to resolve, and I'm not sure she really understood what the issue was. Thank you!
I didn't have to get that far. After enabling reagentc, windows reset was good to go. Dude, you just don't know how you've helped me a lot. After my last update my PC became unusable and I've had a headache with it since morning trying to figure out why it hangs beyond use. Thanks a lot for your solution. You've contributed something to my life mate 🎉. Be blessed lots.
You’re an absolute legend man ❤️ thank you so much for this video it’s helped me so much. I genuinely was confused when my PC wasn’t allowing me to reset everything and I thought I had a virus. Thank you so much
The big problems come from systems that have the BIOS set to RAID mode, including Optane. The reason is that the drivers needed to support the controller while it is in RAID mode are not always included, or have problems and require new driver versions(which may not be in your recovery environment). AHCI is going to be a lot less problematic. If you keep your Intel drivers up to date, you will generally be safer from problems.
Guys try it more than once, because the first time it failed but I went on normal cmd and it failed again then I ran cmd as administrator and then it worked, I checked the info it said enable, like if this work so other people know too. This is so sick I swear lol. Thanks so much. luv u top G LOL
Okay people, this mans a legend, ive spent all day searching through hours of stupid tutorials today (for other stuff) and your s was the only one that worked, and you make everything simple and you dont go to fast or slow. Your the legend man. Have a good 1
For the guys who have the error "REAGENTC.EXE: The Windows RE image was not found." try doing this : Open command prompt(Run as Administration) and type: reagentc /disable then type: reagentc /setreimage /path \\?\GLOBALROOT\device\harddisk0\partition1\Recovery\WindowsRE Then type: reagentc /enable
@@howareyou841 Low disk space can cause those problems, but also the need to update your drivers. Go into device manager, and for every device(from the bottom to the top), right-click and tell it to update driver. Do that for ALL of them, especially the Intel drivers. Make sure any other software you have is up to date as well, because iTunes and iCloud have put upgrade holds on some versions of Windows 10. Now, you have three ways to upgrade to the latest version of Windows. The first is Windows Update, the second is to use a Windows 10 flash drive created by the Media Creation Tool. The third is the Windows 10 Update assistant. If the Windows 10 flash drive doesn't work for you, then your Windows install is probably REALLY broken, and you will want to do a full backup, save your files, then just wipe the machine and do a clean install of Windows 10. It is stuff like this that should inspire people to make a full image backup(preferably with something like Acronis True Image) so that if Windows really breaks, you can get your Windows back to how it was at the time you made the image.
I have fix for it This problem arrives when you delete windows recovery partition If you don't have windows recovery partition or drive just reset your pc using your recovery media or using online windows 10 media creation tool mind you install same windows version to prevent activation if you do all this you will get your windows recovery partition back then any one ask me when this is done I will tell you how to move all files from windows recovery drive to windows disk c and safely delet windows recovery drive must try this I've done this I know how bad you all felling that you can't reset your pc
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I HAVE BEING HAVING ISSUES WITH MY WINDOWS 10 FOR YEARS AND HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO RESOLVE THEM BECAUSE I COULDNT COMPLETELY RESET, NOTHING ON RUclips HELPED APART FROM THIS. I OWE YOU SO MUCH MORE THAN A SUB (I don't know why I did this in caps but seriously this was so was so helpful)
Hi guys, I was able to fix the problem by doing this. Go to the windows search bar at the bottom left corner of your screen and type "cmd" then run it as administrator. Then you wanna type "reagentc /enable" if the operation is successful, you are good to go. However, for some people it won't be successful. Your next step would be to type "reagentc /repair" your screen might freeze for few seconds or mins but don't worry it is repairing. Lastly, type "reagentc /enable" and if the operation is successful, you are good to go. Hopefully this helps.
I got a strange error when I upgraded to Pro, also changed the main display. I cannot remember but it was something like 00000X42, I Googled it and found this link support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/929833/use-the-system-file-checker-tool-to-repair-missing-or-corrupted-system I could not start almost ANY program, they all reported some file missing or corrupt. If possible, pls make a video on this one. Sorry that it's not 100% accurate...:-)
Thanks Brian. Been wanting to know this. Just doing a clean install now after an unsuccessful BIOS update. I'll never learn not to tinker. As always very helpful content. Cheers
If it doesn't work the first time try a couple more times. It worked for me the second time for some reason. This vid saved me a lot of headache thank ylu
Thank you so much I have a dell Inspiron 15 3565 I upgraded it with an SSD and this problem came I went to the dell service center they told me to reinstall os I don't like to change os to have the original company state so I saw this video and it was very useful hands off to you very good all the best for your next video.

You're right DuDe!!

If none of these are working for you, make sure that your pc has the latest version of windows. After my computer was up to date it worked just fine.
But the thing is, it wont let me update for the latest version... im trying to fix it but oof
