problem
i tried dealing with lenovo support initially
i used command prompt admin to find serial number of machine. it was all numbers
But lenovo said Serial number is Numbers and letters.
the Number isn't on the bottom!?
and i don't have the boxes they came in. its probably on the receipts from 2013 which i don't have time to look for . maybe some day?

I'm glad they are out. Thank You.
we have had so many update fails, I switch it to the middle of the night.
you had to do a custom code clean out to get the "fails" out. is that the only way?
in searching for" windows update failing at 30% per cent" i see people saying they're still having lots of Update fails in windows 10

Windows updates say 30% for the last 5 hours. I just got up from what i was doing and clicked the screen. I don't know if they stop when the screen saver stops . Computer my be going into sleep mode?
computer said there were 4 additional today after the Window update service stack , and it seemed to be stuck on the first one, i enabled updates again and restarted.
i must have a setting wrong for updating?
-
I had done the Window update service stack you asked for but it went so fast, i wasn't sure it worked so i tried it again and it said it was already done.
the "fixlist txt" is for separate issues right? other than windows update?
-
"ESET Security appears to be disabled." Yes, i disabled it because i was having issues using the tools fixes
i uninstalled the Garmin, and disabled cccleaner at startup
I had Windows update off also on last fix, and system restore, i'm updating it now
When the computer slowed way down in the last few days i turned it off as it seemed to be Hanging, but it's on now
I'm working and i may not be able to proceed with this custom fix this afternoon , maybe tomorrow morning
thanks a lot

i've recently read hard drives only last 3-5 years. This one is 8 years. i think we will probably buy a new laptop with windows 10 on it.i don't know if its worth updating this one if the hard drive is damaged? What do you think?

Chkdsk ran.
defragmenting ran
(i noticed that i have the option set to weekly, but it says 2019
i'm not sure what the oddly named drive is at the bottom in the picture, but it won't optimize.)
-
ok, i think this is it? it didn't come up in the 26226 filter

chkdsk hung on computer.
always spun at 10% on lenovo screen
previous to that, the screen was becoming very difficult to type on , therefore couldn't do safe mode command line tasks
programs, internet, were taking about 5 minutes to open
computer would no longer start just hang at 10%
i picked alternate troubleshooting after pressing power button
used system restore back to March.
then ran chkdsk again and it finished
then ran Farbar again
chrome and firefox both present as programs but won't open
files below, bad blocks still noted
Thanks
Casey
-
yes, i did the pictures you sent above.
chkdsk didn't run for some reason and wasn't in the list
i ran command prompt as administrator.
chkdsk /ractually i am running it again
no screen yesterday
the Lenovo screen has said "checking and repairing drive C 10% complete for about 2 hours"
-
The event viewer doesn't show the Chkdsk log .So I guess it didn't work. the last one recorded is 5-13-20
