If you think that is pointless, remember that whenever a program closed unexpectedly, Windows would offer to "find a solution online". I have never seen that shit work in my life
Windows troubleshooter has never fixed a single problem for me.
It can reset a network adapter but that the only time I've seen it do anything useful
Yeah but its usually faster just to reboot the machine instead of letting it dick around with itself.
Now with SSDs it is but back in the day it took approximately 3 businesses days for my gaming rig to boot up.
Never since after Win 7 fir me.
Yeah in XP that troubleshooter actually helped me with figuring out things like "dude you did not connect the device you're trying to find" or "yes there is no internet connecting due to this setting being wrong".
And then in some OS Version it suddenly completely useless.
Initially, with Win 7, it felt even better than XP, as it applied the fixes itself and also showed a log of the fixes it made. Wonder why MS thought it would be a good idea to go in the opposite direction.
Look what they get in return? I totally off of it, now.
They'll implement copilot into it soon. Don't worry.
It's been surprisingly decent for audio issues for me. Often the scan for audio devices kickstarts some devices back into the land of the living.
yeah, it seems to only work for those https://old.reddit.com/r/iiiiiiitttttttttttt/comments/hakc3t/in_25_years_of_life_this_is_the_first_time_i_have/ it wont let me post a screenshot.
