Windows 10 on laptop cannot boot showing "WINDOWS\system\logfiles\Srt\Srttrail.txt" error

MIRTAZAPINE · Jun 10, 2021

I hibernated my laptop and I could not get it to wake up and start. All I got is automatic repair was attempted but it does not allow me to boot up. It just says WINDOWS\system\logfiles\Srt\Srttrail.txt at the recovery page. My older deskstop got this problem too and I never got to fix it followed youtube guide typing command for chkdsk and rebuildbc to no avail. I tried the guides on my laptop and it could not work. Coincidentally like my old deskstop with this error it is a crucial ssd too and I was dual booting with 2 separate windows on each ssd on my machine.

Anyone have experience this and know a fix? I could pull my data from ssd out and reinstall a fresh windows but I got links and webpages to my browser that I don't wanna loose which is frustrating. Maybe I could copy the file out to?

I prefer to get this the windows booting up as I be losing some software licenses which is hassle to reactivated again.

this is just a commercial link to offer stupid programs which use the desperation of ppl to make profit.

your Bootmenu is corrupted. try an inplace upgrade in safeboot or just install the OS new. this is quite serious. sry

Is in place upgrade possible when it could not even boot? Would i lost any data for that. This is frustrating I am learning my lesson now and using acronis image backups now for my other PC.

you come with F2 or DEL into the bootmenu? i have a DVD burned long ago. i can boot from it and start the recovery section.
it is the windows recovery Disc. is there a possibility you can create this on a different device?
VERY oldschool but it saved my ***ss several times.

I'm not saying any Windows upgrade did this to you, but I've had Win 10 upgrades complete break Windows where I couldn't boot into Safe Mode and system repairs wouldn't work. I was left with one option, format and re-install. I had backups of the data on my drive, so it wasn't a big letdown, just a huge annoyance.

In your case, sounds like some data isn't backed up. So, you may not be able to boot into Windows, but if you have a way to connect the laptop's HDD/SSD to another working system you should at least be able to pull any important data off it before you format it and re-install windows.

installing the OS new will kill your data.

and thats correct. pulling out the HDD/SSD and put it via connector to another PC and save your __pictures, letters *whatever

~~you can try that inplace only if u can boot into safemode. IF it's works u can safe your data as well AND the old OS will be saved to the WIN-OLD folder then.~~

but without a recovery media no safemode

go to your neigbours and handcuff them to help u.

Well! update:

inplace is in safe mode not possible BUT with that DVD u come def. to the safe mode! This means your data are not lost..
Having/creating this DVD means i could guide u then.
Does your notebook have a DVD drive?
