While Microsoft pushes out monthly updates&hellip; users still face performance issues ranging from botched updates and unforeseen errors to driver conflicts.<\/p><p>Although there are built-in maintenance tools, working around them can get tricky, especially for someone who isn&rsquo;t a tech expert. For similar reasons, we&rsquo;ve put together this guide to cuts through the confusion and provides you with essential fixes to effectively diagnose &amp; fix errors on Windows 11.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-does-windows-11-run-into-issues?\">Why Does Windows 11 Run into Issues?<\/h2><p>Windows 11 brought fresh set of upgrades like AI integration, Wi-Fi 7, and native 7z\/TAR support. While that&rsquo;s great for modern setups, it may also create problems. Especially for users with old hardware, or those running legacy drivers and apps that aren&rsquo;t optimized for the new environment. Some common reasons behind persistent issues on Windows 11 are:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You&rsquo;re running it on hardware that do not meet baseline requirements like compatible CPU, TPM 2.0, and Secure Boot can cause errors or system instability<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You&rsquo;re using incompatible or outdated drivers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You are using software programs that aren&rsquo;t compatible with Windows 11<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You&rsquo;re running a buggy update<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The system files of your PC are corrupted<\/li>\n<\/ul><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"windows-11-issues:-the-fixes\">Windows 11 Issues: The Fixes<\/h2><p>Repairing Windows carries inherent risks&mdash;always back up your data.

Repair Using Windows Recovery Environment<\/h3><p>If the above method doesn&rsquo;t work, use the Windows Recovery Environment to get things back on track. Try the Startup Repair tool &ndash; it checks your system logs for boot issues and usually fixes them automatically without you needing to do a thing.<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to <strong>Settings<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Update &amp; Security<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Recovery<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click <strong>Restart now<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to <strong>Troubleshoot<\/strong> and select <strong>Advanced options.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click<strong> Startup repair <\/strong>and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>To have more granular control over boot configuration, use the Bootrec.exe utility &ndash; a tool for handling corruption within the Master Boot Record, boot sector, and Boot Configuration Data store. Similar to the Startup Repair process, run it from within the WinRE.<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to <strong>Settings<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Update &amp; Security<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Recovery.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click <strong>Restart now.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to <strong>Troubleshoot<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Advanced options &gt; Command Prompt.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Execute the following commands one by one:<\/li>\n<\/ul><pre class=\"wp-block-code command_container\"><code>Bootrec.exe \/FixMbr<\/code><\/pre><pre class=\"wp-block-code command_container\"><code>Bootrec.exe \/FixBoot<\/code><\/pre><pre class=\"wp-block-code command_container\"><code>Bootrec.exe \/RebuildBcd<\/code><\/pre><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Restart once done.<\/li>\n<\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6.&nbsp;Repair Using System Restore<\/h3><p>As already mentioned, the System Restore utility lets you roll back the changes made after you set up the restore point.
