Yeah, basically that. I’m back at work in Windows land on a Monday morning, and pondering what sadist at Microsoft included these features. It’s not hyperbole to say that the startup repair, and the troubleshooters in settings, have never fixed an issue I’ve encountered with Windows. Not even once. Is this typical?
ETA: I’ve learned from reading the responses that the Windows troubleshooters primarily look for missing or broken drivers, and sometimes fix things just by restarting a service, so they’re useful if you have troublesome hardware.
Never. I’ve been using since Windows 3.11
Windows 95
Windows 98
Windows xp
Vista
Windows 8
Windows 10
Not once has it solved a problem
There was a troubleshooter in 3.11?
No. That was meant as a statement of I’ve been using windows for that long and since the beginning of Windows (and when ever they introduced the trouble shooter) it’s never worked
Then use it more, because it does work.
~Sinisterly, someone who has been using Windows as long as you but also has used Windows ME, Windows 2000, Windows 7 and Windows 11.
? Use it more because it “works” even though it’s never worked for me.
That’s your logic?
So you are saying the system uses a powerful AI that learns and adapts? That way over time it will start fixing the issues?
Look at the other comments to see how many people have had no luck with the system. Maybe it works for you but in general it fails.
