If your Windows system is shutting down with the reason identified as "Kernel API," it typically means that the shutdown was initiated by an application using the Windows API for shutting down the system. This can happen due to various reasons, including updates, scheduled tasks, or user-initiated actions through scripts or applications. Here's how you can address and potentially resolve the issue: 1. Check for Scheduled Tasks: - Open the Task Scheduler by typing "Task Scheduler" in the Start menu. - Look for any tasks that might be scheduled to shut down the system. Check especially under the Microsoft\Windows folder and its subfolders. - If you find a task that might be causing the shutdown, consider disabling it or modifying its settings as necessary. 2. Review Update Settings: - Sometimes, Windows updates can initiate a system shutdown for installing updates. Check Windows Update settings to ensure updates are managed as you desire. - You can adjust settings in the Update & Security settings in the Windows Settings app. 3. Check Event Viewer: - Open Event Viewer by typing "Event Viewer" in the Start menu. - Look under the "System" logs for any shutdown-related events around the time the shutdown occurred. - The logs may provide additional information about the source and reason for the shutdown. 4. Inspect Running Applications: - Use Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) to review currently running applications and background processes. - Look for any unusual applications or services that might be responsible for initiating a shutdown. 5. Check Scripts and Third-Party Software: - Review any scripts (e.g., batch scripts, PowerShell scripts) that might be set to run automatically and check their content for shutdown commands. - Consider reviewing any third-party software that might be capable of initiating a shutdown. 6. Perform a Malware Scan: - In rare cases, malware can cause unexpected shutdowns. Run a full system scan with your preferred antivirus or antimalware software to rule out this possibility. 7. Check for Windows Services: - Review the services running on your system (you can access this through Task Manager or by running `services.msc`). - Check if there is any service configured to perform a shutdown and adjust its settings accordingly. If you've investigated these areas and still cannot determine the cause of the shutdown, you might consider reaching out to Microsoft Support for further assistance or performing more detailed troubleshooting.
Thanks for the solution. I have a licence key, but i can not activate my server itshow me the windows have expired. Please help me with a video on how to solve the problem.
Hi, Certainly! Activating a Windows Server license typically involves a few straightforward steps. Here's a general guide: ### Method 1: Online Activation 1. Open Server Manager: Launch Server Manager by clicking on the Start button and selecting Server Manager from the menu. 2. Access Activation Settings: In Server Manager, click on the "Local Server" option from the left-hand menu. Then, find the "Properties" section in the main window. 3. Check Activation Status: Look for the activation status. If it shows as "Not activated," proceed with activation. 4. Start Activation Wizard: Click on the link that says "Activate Windows now." This will open the Windows Activation Wizard. 5. Enter License Key: Enter your Windows Server license key when prompted. This key is typically a 25-character code provided when you purchased the license. 6. Follow Prompts: Follow the prompts in the Activation Wizard to complete the activation process. This usually involves agreeing to the Microsoft Software License Terms and confirming your activation. 7. Verification: Once activation is complete, verify that Windows Server is now activated by checking the activation status in Server Manager. ### Method 2: Phone Activation If online activation fails or you encounter any issues, you can also activate Windows Server over the phone. Here's how: 1. Open Activation Wizard: Follow steps 1-4 from the online activation method to open the Windows Activation Wizard. 2. Choose Phone Activation: In the Activation Wizard, select the option for phone activation. This option is usually provided if online activation fails. 3. Call Microsoft Activation Center: The Activation Wizard will display a phone number and a set of numbers to provide during the call. Dial the number provided and follow the automated instructions. 4. Enter Confirmation ID: During the phone call, you'll be asked to enter the installation ID displayed in the Activation Wizard. After entering this, you'll receive a confirmation ID. 5. Enter Confirmation ID: Enter the confirmation ID provided by the Microsoft Activation Center into the Activation Wizard. 6. Complete Activation: Follow any remaining prompts in the Activation Wizard to complete the activation process. 7. Verification: Verify that Windows Server is now activated by checking the activation status in Server Manager. ### Additional Notes: - Ensure that your server has an active internet connection for online activation. - Make sure the license key you're using is valid and matches the edition of Windows Server you're activating. - If you're still experiencing issues, consider contacting Microsoft support for further assistance. These steps should help you activate your Windows Server license successfully. Let me know if you need further clarification on any of the steps!
