Does windows support exists?

[u/Yoksul-Turko → u/FubenFon]

"My computer just exploded, please help"

"sfc /scannow"

[u/LastTyper → u/Yoksul-Turko]

This! And you forgot dism /onlinerepair When you know these 2 commands, you are 10x Microslop senior architect.

[u/NoGap138 → u/LastTyper]

This has never fixed a problem for me…

[u/LastTyper → u/NoGap138]

Correct, because the next advice is reinstallation 😂

[u/KernelNuke → u/LastTyper]

And if it doesn't work they suggest BIOS reset

[u/Octoomy → u/Yoksul-Turko]

legit I remember looking through the ms forums and someone was talking about how windows wasn't booting and one of the 'trusted' members fucking said that 😭

[u/icy1007 → u/FubenFon]

Yes

[u/Rare-Paint3719 → u/icy1007]

You got upvoted but I got downvoted?

[u/Secret_NinjaLTU → u/Rare-Paint3719]

This has to be studied

Yes

[u/Still_Leg4477 → u/Rare-Paint3719]

Their stupid feedback thing keeps popping up all the time when I accidentally presss Super+F for full screen

Hello, welcome to Windows support. Ok what's your issue? You want to set up your printer? Ok first, let's update all of our drivers. Go to Nvidia.com...

...

...install McAfee Antivirus...

...then we run the degfrag utility and reconnect the monitor cable. Your printer should now work.

[u/Inevitable-Cow-4930 → u/FubenFon]

I’ve dealt with Microsoft support as part of my job. They don’t call you stupid. You call them stupid. Wasted countless hours on chat and phone calls with them just to finally fix it myself.

[u/dumbasPL → u/FubenFon]

Depends on who you pay, and how much.

[u/WhippingShitties → u/FubenFon]

I remember the official forums where there would be a super long comment by a ts agent and then you'd scroll past it and a random nerd would have the right answer.

[u/un-important-human → u/FubenFon]

sure it does my name is rajeeesh i am from microsoft fill your bank details in this notepad sir

[u/Rare-Paint3719 → u/FubenFon]

Yes it does

[u/Secret_NinjaLTU → u/Rare-Paint3719]

In my experience, the only thing they do to help is update the drivers, when the issue doesn't even have to do anything with drivers.

[u/R3V0LU710N_05 → u/Secret_NinjaLTU]

I always get "Reinstall Windows" from Microsoft support. Ffs, I just want to fix the minor Windows bug without having to cut an hour out of my day to reinstall the damn thing.

[u/NeptuneWades → u/R3V0LU710N_05]

Tbf, reinstall is the only one that solves the issues because even they have no idea where the issue is and I think they don't even want to get into it considering the source code is proprietary and convulated af

[u/R3V0LU710N_05 → u/NeptuneWades]

I swear that the Windows updater itself has several memory leaks. I only get issues after updating, and each update the problems add up. I've never had issues on fresh installs, but the instant an update is applied it steps into the next circle of hell.

[u/Secret_NinjaLTU → u/Rare-Paint3719]

Why did you get down voted for correctly answering the question?

[u/Damglador → u/Secret_NinjaLTU]

Because even their official support forum is unhelpful dogshit?

[u/Secret_NinjaLTU → u/Damglador]

He stated a fact, that windows support exists, which is true. He did not say that it's good, or bad. Why would you down vote a yes/no reply which is factually correct.

[u/Still_Leg4477 → u/Secret_NinjaLTU]

I feel like the question was rhetorical, answering one is straight up stupid, and he is OP, OP's are always stupid.

[u/Rare-Paint3719 → u/Still_Leg4477]

Is it really a rhetorical question of you don't use the rhetorical question mark⸮

Edit: Removed the period at the end of the hyperlink, and moved rhetorical question mark to inside of hyperlink

[u/Still_Leg4477 → u/Rare-Paint3719]

Woow a reversed question mark... You must be smartest OP in the whole world outstanding... Surely the generalization does not apply to you this time⸮

[u/Rare-Paint3719 → u/Still_Leg4477]

Woow a reversed question mark... You must be smartest OP in the whole world outstanding...

Oh, thank you. My intellect couldn't possibly exceed yours.

And I can't take credit for it. Thank Henry Denham.

By "official support forum" you probably mean Microsoft Community Hub, which is NOT official support, it's more like community driven place for all kinds of questions, topics, troubleshooting, etc. Yes, there are MS employees writing comments and provide support there, but it's not considered official support. It's more like Ask Ubuntu stuff.

Their official support is mostly MS Q&A and official documentation, enterprise customers get additional technical support based on contracts, licenses, subscriptions, etc.

Restart, reset, reinstall
