unstable startup of windows
"Windows Boot Issue: Need Help! Hey fellow Windows Insiders, I'm experiencing a weird issue with my laptop. When I start it up, Windows won't boot properly. I get a blank screen with the flight symbol and power symbol lights turned on. Both symbols are lit, but nothing happens for a few minutes to an hour, and then it automatically starts up. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Any ideas what might be causing it? I've tried booting into Safe Mode and running a Startup Repair, but no luck so far. Laptop specs: Asus Tuf F15 FX507ZC4 Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks,Windows on exFAT has some bugs
As shown in the screenshot attachment, when using the exFAT file system as the system volume to run the latest version of Windows 11 Build 27686, the following bugs exist: 1. When the Shim DataBase file exists, the system UWP such as the start menu and settings cannot be opened. If you delete the file named "RandomGUID.sysmain.sdb" in the "C:\Windows\apppatch\MergeSdbFilesSource" directory, or delete the registry "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\SdbUpdates" item, the problem can be solved. This bug has existed since Win11 v22H2 two years ago and has not been fixed yet. 2. When the Smart App Control function is in the evaluation or enabled state, the operating system will run very slowly. If you set it to off in app & browser control in Windows Security, or directly change the "VerifiedAndReputablePolicyState" key value in the registry "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\CI\Policy" to "0" to turn it off, the problem can be solved. This bug has existed since Win11 v22H2 two years ago and has not been fixed yet. 3. Check Disk Utility will throw an error when checking exFAT volumes with a total number of clusters between 2^30 and 2^32 (that is, the FAT table size is between 4GB and 16GB), but in fact the volume is completely normal and not damaged. In addition, according to the exFAT file system specification, a single exFAT volume can have a maximum of 4294967295 allocation units, which means that the maximum partition capacity supported by formatting with 4KB clusters is 4096Byte×2^32Byte=16TB. However, when trying to load a volume of this size, it takes a long time to complete the operation, which may be another bug. 4. The change partition size function in the disks & volumes in the new system storage settings will cause file system corruption and loss of all data when operating on exFAT volumes. If the volume is a system partition, it will immediately trigger BSOD and cause the OS to completely crash and fail to start. This is a very dangerous bug. 5. When the system Blue Screen of Death occurs, the DUMP file cannot be generated normally in the exFAT volume. This seems to be a bug in exfat.sys. 6. When the system volume is exFAT, the hiberfil.sys file cannot be created normally, resulting in the inability to use the hybrid boot function. The 0xc0000010 error will also be prompted through command line operations. This seems to be a bug in exfat.sys. 7. Every time try to run a user UWP app such as Microsoft Store, the AppX Deployment Service will repeatedly stop abnormally, causing the UWP program to crash immediately. This seems to be a bug in AppXDeploymentServer.dll. Please fix these bugs, thanks! In addition, it usually takes a long time to boot Windows in the exFAT volume. Can you optimize the boot speed of exFAT system volumes in OS Loader?
WVD On/Off based on activity
I am wondering if there is a way to configure WVD's to boot on access and shutdown on lack of activity. We have already looking into the auto on/auto off feature, however, we have users in multiple countries, and they are not able to work during our traditional business hours. Does anyone know of a way to set the machines to boot on access, when a user goes to connect. Is there a way to turn off the machine after it has been inactive for a certain amount of time?
