Parameter is Incorrect on post-crash re-image from restore on Windows 10

I recently got a system crash and attempted to restore my Windows 10 to its previous state, but after the re-image process, I keep encountering an error message stating "Parameter is Incorrect." This issue occurs during or after the restore, preventing my system from functioning properly and making it difficult to complete the recovery process, leading to frustration and uncertainty about how to resolve the problem.

    Make sure the backup or system image you're restoring from isn't corrupted. If possible, try restoring from a different backup or re-create the system image if you have the option.

    I understand how frustrating it is to have a system crash and then hit this "Parameter is Incorrect" wall during the recovery. This error essentially means the restore process received an instruction it couldn't understand.
