Windows 8 is corrupt on my Encore 2 Tablet
by Guest Staci970- 0 replies
- 180 views
Hi. I need help getting my Encore 2 tablet to start. It shuts on, but nothing else. I've tried force booting, and get a message stating "preparing BitLocker recovery", then the tablet goes to a blue screen with a message stating "There are no more BitLocker recovery options on my pc". (I do have a BitLocker key) A little white keyboard comes up with the message occasionally, but is non receptive to anything I type in, including my BitLocker key. I have also gotten messages stating that Window 8 32bit didn't shut down properly. Most likely a corrupt file or similar. The tablet is fine but the OS is not. In the end, I need to uninstall and reinstall the OS. Any help is grea…

I am sure this is a very basic question. I am a disables, getting older, veteran. I am legally BLIND. I have recently received a computer from one of my children. She gave this to me with a new version of Windows office, 2019. The computer itself has Windows 10 but I am not too sure what version. I am kind of like a guy or gal with a brown belt in Karate. I know just enough to get beat up. I am trying to adjust the brightness on the screen and have zero idea of what I am doing, at this point. Thank you for your suggestions and assistance, and you patience with an old man. Sincerely Continue reading...

Asus Q550L. Went to upgrade to 8.1 from 8, got stuck on 82% for more than 30 minutes. I held power button to shut it down, cause it was stuck on 82%. Got frustrated. Powered back on, and now it's stuck in the preparing automatic repair. Laptop NEVER fully boots up. Doesn't go to the login screen. I would hold power button to power down. Tried booting into safe mode. Safe mode doesn't come up. it keeps continuously power cycling to boot up and does the preparing automatic repair, but never does repair the laptop. I do not have an installation CD to reinstall or repair. No usb flashdrive or anything. Can't use the laptop at all since it can not boot up fully. I'm on another…

Activation key lost.

So I have had a hell of a day. I have a custom build pc that I have had for a number of years, and on it I had Windows 8 installed (Which was then upgraded to 10 back with the free update). A couple years ago I decided to install a dual boot on this computer with Ubuntu & Windows for my university. It was useful for a time but eventually got on my nerves. Now I'm not exactly the most informed person when it comes to computing, but I try. I decided to uninstall Ubuntu so I deleted the partition. This is where everything went wrong. Now my PC wont boot to an OS and is instead stuck on GRUB rescue (which I believe is the Linux boot). To repair it I attem…

My playlists are currently automatically being created in a filepath that looks something like My PC -> Dropbox -> Music -> Playlists, but this (for some reason) is causing syncing issues when trying to access the playlists on my Android phone. Creating test playlists and putting them in the "usual" file location of "My PC -> Dropbox -> Playlists" seems to resolve this, but I don't know how to set location for newly created playlists to match those I'll be moving across.

About a week ago or more I started seeing everything that I clicked on and opened was being sent to the recycle bin, I can open emails, documents and they will start disappearing as if someone is hitting the backspace button or it tries to send it to the recycle bin.
