Hello, I am a windows user and wish to create a multiboot usb which I can use to opt multiple OS to install but I am facing some problem, I used all types of software for making bootable usb like WINUSB, VENTOY and MULTIUSB but when I start the process after adding iso of windows 10 and windows 7, A blue screen of death appears and it says that a system service known as CLASSPNP.SYS has excepted and your pc needs to restart. I face this problem everytime while creating a bootable usb, I even tried this on another pc but this problem is still there, any help regarding this problem will be greatly appreciated.
After multiple failed attempts, I finally called Microsoft and asked. These are the instructions they emailed me:
1. Insert a USB at least 4GB in size
2. Open CMD prompt as Admin
3. Run diskpart
4. Run list disk
5. Select your flash drive by running "select disk"
6. Run clean by typing "clean"
7. Create a partition by typing "create partition primary"
8. Select the new partition by typing "select partition 1"
9. Format the partition by typing "format fs=ntfs quick"
10. Set the current partition as Active by typing "Active"
11. Exit diskpart
12. Mount your ISO. Use Virtual CloneDrive or something similar.
13. Navigate to the mounted image and install a bootsector. Ex. If the mounted ISO is on drive G: you'd navigate to G:\ boot and run:
C:\WindowsSystems32> G:
G:\> cd boot
G:\boot> bootsect.exe /nt60 E: (where E:\ in this case is my flash drive's letter)
14. Copy the entire contents of the ISO to your flash drive by typing " G:\> xcopy g:\*.* e:\ /E /H /F"
Once that's done, your USB is finished.
Bro these tricks are really helpful, I really appreciate your help
Is the SATA setting in the BIOS for the boot machine set to AHCI (which it should be) or something else? I haven't seen it set for something else in a while (multi maybe) but you could check that?

Was just an idea of things I have seen. Have you tried different USBs of different sizes? And messed around with choosing ntfs/exfat/fat32? Pretty sure with windows installs now NTFS is preferred but could still try juggling around. Also, is it only with the Windows 10 isos on the multiboot USB? I know that the newer ISOs have had issues with being bootable and maybe they are the problem. Did you try with just a windows 7 ISO and maybe a ubuntu image as well just to see if those work. I personally use ventoy so trying things out like this is a breeze. I know I have had windows 10 isos that didn't work but they never crashed ventoy entirely so it seems something else is going on.
Yes bro You are right, It works if you first make the ventoy iso bootbable using rufus and then we should turn off the secure boot option in BIOS then we should boot into usb, then we should follow the steps of the ventoy live cd. After that the ventoy bootbable drive would be ready. Now I booted into windows and observed that there is no more space left on usb, then i used minitool partition software or any other software (minitool is recommended) and formatted the remaining exfat partition into NTFS or Fat32. After that the partition became visible and I copied both Iso files in that partition, in the end you can turn on secure boot . This should definitely work. You can install the ventoy iso from their github page.

I am not sure why you are telling me how to use something I am already using for years without issue? I was just throwing some ideas at you to try. I know I never had to deal with using a separate partition tool to get the USB ready for ventoy at all. That was all part of the Ventoy2Disk.exe and I didn't mess with the livecd at all. Maybe whatever is causing you to be unable to use Ventoy2Disk.exe is also causing issues with the media creation.
Actually I was just telling how I solved the problem. Ventoy2Disk.exe is not working in my pc as when I start the process to make bootable usb , I get a BSOD and CLASSPNP.SYS exception error. Then I found the alternative of Ventoy2Disk.exe which is Livecd.iso

Have you asked in the ventoy forums about this? I read this as a problem attempting to boot after creation, but this is a problem in actually creating the boot USB?

You'd probably want to keep it on fat32 for older computers and OSes, or ntfs for newer ones. Can't mix and match on the same stick. Then you'd need grub or some usb bootloader menu to input the other OS values.

Thankyou everyone for your help, now i have found the exact solution. Actually my antivirus program was interfering with the whole process. I tried the process in safe mode and it worked like a charm. Now i have removed the antivirus and make multiboot usb without any interruptions!!
Please help ....
It's a problem you get notified of by the GRUB bootloader: you have deleted Linux partitions before removing GRUB bootloader.
My recommendation: Remove the GRUB bootloader, will say go back to Windows bootloader.
No problem man

Pretty sure that if it is grayed out it means your computer is UEFI based, which means you would need to reinstall windows in the legacy mode of your PC to use this method.

@kabeerkhan2016,
I figure, this or any other methods @kabeerkhan2016 mention only works for Legacy Bios and NOT for UEFI/EFI,
Which another whole process if you want dual boot with Remix or any other 3er. Party OS
Bravo. Worked for me!
Please add some procedures in text to the thread.. It'll be helpful.

you are running your laptop in IDE which mean you shouldn't have a problem at all,
by the way the REMIX OS you need is Remix OS for PC Package (Legacy) not the EFI and you'll be good to go
Increasing the space on the Flash disk instead of HDD

Is there a way?

Do you mean we need to re-install windows to MBR format ? To make dual boot alive ?
I have same problem, my windows is boot via UEFI, so it can't boot from another OS
Here's my problem when run easyBCD
goes as far as remix text
Hello.
I followed the instructions and all seems to work but my computer boots, gets past Android logo, up comes REMIX text and then it just stays there with a small cursor flashing. I waited an hour but it goes no further. I am trying to bot 32 bit version and it works on same computer but from USB stick. Hoe long should it normally take from hard disk? From USB it took 10 mins.
Thanks

Want to have Android on your PC?
Looking to dual-boot alongside 64-bit Windows?
Want to increase internal storage beyond the maximum 8GB allocated by the Remix OS Beta PC installer?
Want to turn Android into an everyday replacement for Windows? Want to mount your internal hard disk drives and network shares?
Look no further for the ultimate guide!
After poring through countless threads, I managed to put together a working and rooted system of Remix OS, dual-booting alongside my UEFI Windows 10 setup for my own use, with storage space more than the maximum of 8GB (if installed via the Windows installer).
Below are the steps for how to install, dual-boot, root and mount 64-bit Remix OS 2.0 Beta on an ext4 partition.
SHRINKING/CREATING A PARTITION FOR REMIX OS
1. Open "Disk Management" in Windows.
2. Right-click on your system drive's primary partition (usually C, the largest-volume partition) and select "Shrink Volume". Set the desired new size for your system partition by subtracting your desired partition size for Remix OS. Mine is 20GB.
3. Wait and when you're done, right-click on the Unallocated Space. Select "New Volume" and format it to FAT32.

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
1. INSTALL REMIX OS ON EXT4 PARTITION
1. Download Remix OS (I am using the 64-bit version) here.
2. Install it onto a USB drive using the installer executable.
3. Boot the USB drive using your motherboard's UEFI boot menu.
4. Press "Tab", then "e" with "Resident Mode" highlighted. Press the down arrow button to go down two lines. Hit space at the end of the line before "initrd" and press "space". Type "INSTALL=0" (in caps, without quotes at the end of the line).
5. Press "Ctrl+X" to run the installer.
6. Select the partition which you just created (a "vfat" partition, usually the last number in the hard disk) and would like to install Remix OS on.
7. Format it to "ext4" partition when prompted to do so (ext4 partition will use up all the available space for the data while fat32 will require you to create a "data.img" file of specified size). Select "Yes" when prompted to create GRUB and GRUB2 EFI bootloader, and when asked for a system-write image.
8. Boot into Remix OS Beta after installation is complete and go through the first start settings until you reach the home screen. Don't mess around too much here first. There are more things to configure.
2. ROOTING REMIX OS
1. Download Linux Mint Cinnamon 64-bit version here.
2. Install it onto a USB drive using Rufus.
3. Boot the USB drive using your motherboard's UEFI boot menu.
4. Download "remixroot.zip" from this post. Save the file in your Downloads folder.
5. Open File Manager and mount your ext4 partition (should be named "Android-x86") by clicking on it. Its contents should appear.
6. Open a Terminal Window. Type the following commands:
Code:
cd Downloads
sudo unzip remixroot.zip -d "/media/mint/Android-x86/android-2016-03-01"
cd /media/mint/Android-x86/android-2016-03-01
sudo sh remixroot.sh
7. If there are no error messages, shutdown Linux Mint.
3. DUAL-BOOT REMIX OS with WINDOWS
1. Boot into Windows.
2. Download Grub2Win
3. Install it by executing Setup.bat.
4. Open Grub2Win.exe for the first time and click on "Manage EFI Partition Modules. Ensure that the Grub2Win EFI Modules are installed. Set Grub2Win as the default EFI boot loader. Close Grub2Win.
5. Download and paste this grub.cfg in the directory where you installed Grub2Win.
6. Append (hd0,5) to the partition (hard disk, partition number) where you installed Remix OS.
7. Save grub.cfg. Open Grub2Win again and click on "Manage Boot Menu" to check if the settings are correct.
4. UPDATING SUPERSU BINARY
1. Boot into Remix OS Beta by restarting your computer. The Grub2Win EFI boot loader should appear with 2 options. Select "Remix OS".
2. Download the Google Play Services installer from here.
3. Install the Google Play Services downloader, download the package and reboot Remix OS when prompted.
4. Setup your Google Account for the Google Play Store.
5. Update "SuperSU" (if available) and download "Root Checker" to check for Root Access. A SuperSU prompt should be displayed.
6. Update SuperSU binary after launching SuperSU and reboot.
5. MOUNTING INTERNAL HDD
1. Download Paragon Mounter here.
2. Grant the application root access when prompted. It should automatically mount your NTFS system drives.
3. You may access them by opening File Explorer and navigating to "Storage>My Remix>Paragon_NTFS_X" for each partition.
That's all. Hope this guide has been of use. Give a thanks and like my site's Facebook page if you have found this guide helpful. I quite like Remix OS and think feel that Android can be quite a viable replacement for Windows, especially those who tend to browse the net and watch YouTube videos more. After all, we do use Android on our phones on a daily basis already.
If I will install grub2win on Windows, I don't need to install grub and grub2 bootloader on Remix OS installation, right?

Hmm, technically, you're right. However, I just hit "Yes" when prompted twice during the installation process to avoid any troubles. Just don't format your primary boot partition (the one with Windows) when prompted to do so. Installing grub and grub2 bootloader won't make any difference as they will be residing on the secondary partition and the computer will boot to the first partition always (the one with Windows on it).
It is also not really possible to add an entry for Remix OS in the Windows Boot Loader at this time, from what I've read as EasyBCD is limited for a UEFI boot loader, only good for legacy Bios. Therefore, I decided to use Grub2win as the defauly bootloader. Do tell me if it works!

Wait, what do you mean by your bios supports only 32 bit with 64 bit hardware? If I'm not wrong, UEFI BIOS does not have 32-bit/64-bit classification. It's the operating system. Do you mean a 32-bit Windows installation?
If you want to be on the safe side, you could try downloading the 32-bit Remix OS ISO image and install it using the same method by booting from your USB drive. However, since you have 64-bit hardware, you should be able to install the 64-bit RemixOS fine, regardless of whether you have a 32/64-bit Windows. Have you tried it?
@XDantheManX, To get 20GB for Remix OS, do I have to follow all the 5 steps? Please be more simple. I seem to get lost at your 1st step, I am so sure if I installed the Remix OS, it will go to the New Volume just previously made.
I want to dual boot Remix OS with Ubuntu. I've already installed Remix on a ext4 partition but now I'm unable to add Remix's boot entry in GRUB2's boot selection menu. Could you pleeeease help me with that? Please?

Yes, you may install Remix OS on the New Volume from the partition you have shrunk. You may set it to 20GB or more, depending on how much you'd like to shrink the volume by.
As for increased storage space, you'll just have to follow step 1 and 3 to dual boot with windows. Install Remix using the USB installer and add its boot entry into Grub2win. The other steps are for rooting Remix OS (optional) and mounting your Windows partitions (eg. C: drive) to access them in Remix OS.

I am assuming you installed Remix OS on a separate partition using the USB installer. To dual boot Remix OS, you'll have to add a custom menu entry into Ubuntu's GRUB2. Download the grub.cfg file attached in the first post, copy the highlighted line of code in the screenshot (adjust hd (0,5) accordingly) and create a file in the /etc/grub.d folder

UEFI indeed has 32-bit and 64-bit implementations, and cheaper systems use 32-bit UEFI while running 64-bit processors. Poorly coded operating systems (actually just Linux) do not handle booting a 64-bit OS from 32-bit UEFI because again, bad programmers. And that assessment is from Intel, not me.

Hello everyone!
After a long day yesterday trying to install Remix OS alongside my already existing Windows 10 and Fedora 24 installations, managed by GRUB2, I finally completed the task.
I decided that I'm going to save other people wanting to do this some trouble, and post the updated guide, since personally I couldn't find it anywhere. It's mainly based on this guide and other similar ones (including the one by @remixtester here on XDA), and since RemixOS changed the install process a little bit, now it's actually done in 10 easy steps.
Recommended system requirements:
2 GHz dual core processor or better
2 GB system memory
Minimum 8 GB of free hard drive space
Internet access is helpful
1. Download the official latest Remix OS 3.0
2. Install Remix OS to a flash drive, using the provided Windows tool. If you don't have Windows, use Rufus or similar piece of software for your OS.
3. Create an at least 8 GB ext4 partition, and disable secure boot. Remember the partition number you are assigned
4. Boot from the flash drive, from the menu that follows click "e" on Resident Mode.
5. Delete > DATA= USB_DATA_PARTIOTION=1 and replace it with > INSTALL=1
6. Select your partition number, format it to ext4
7. Skip GRUB2, skip EFI GRUB and skip Write/Read Access
8. Reboot back to your Linux distro and open the Terminal
9. Log in as superuser and input: > gedit /etc/grub.d/40_custom
Add (do not remove the existing text in the file) the following text to the file. Replace the "X" in set root='(hd0,gptX)' with your partition number. Also paste the text exactly as is, the formatting is crucial for it to work:

menuentry 'Remix OS' --class android-x86 {
insmod part_gpt
insmod ext2
set root='(hd0,gptX)'
linuxefi /RemixOS/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive SRC=/RemixOS UVESA_MODE=1920x1080 verbose logo.showlogo=1
initrdefi /RemixOS/initrd.img
}
10. Rebuild your GRUB:
For Fedora distribution:
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/Fedora/grub.cfg
For other Linux distributions:
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
Alternatively:
update-grub
Upon reboot you'll see Remix OS added to your OS entries and you should be able to boot up and use it just fine.
@engmia Great guide! Although I prefer Grub-Customiser!
The GUI makes everything so easy!
Just to be sure...

If that's my partition list, and that the 20 GO is the partition I created for Remix OS, then I should write set root='(hd0,gpt4)' ?
7. SKIP GRUB2, EFI GRUB and Write/Read Access
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So thats skip Grub2, skip EFI grub and Yes to W/R Access?
set root='(hd0,gptX)'
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9L5kBcmfDqVbWxRU29CbDh4S00
This means it will read set root='hd2,gpt4)'?
Another thing is it cant find /RemixOS/kernel
any ideas?
Ok followed each step by step and i end up with
something (hd2,gpt4) something
must load kernel first

on bootup.
Now previously i had it installed via windows 10 on my ssd where i deleted the entry from windows boot manager and put the entry in grub. Everything booted fine. But i didnt want it on my ssd. So i followed this to put it on its own partition on a hdd with ubuntu on it. Also when i try to do the grub2-mkconfig it says "command not recognized did you mean grub-mkconfig"

In Ubuntu you can just do
Code:
sudo update-grub
Ok still cannot get this thing going. So heres the run down
UEFI Boot only in bios
sda1,2,3,4 Only windows 10 it makes 4 partitions
sdb1 storage
sdc1 efi
sdc2 ubuntu
sdc3 RemixOS
sdc4 Swap
so i do everything that the instructions say and i get an error for unable to find /RemixOS/kernel and i need to load the kernel first. i think its detecting the partition now due to no having the disk hd2,gpt3 error
Is it possible to install grub/theme using Windows?

This sounds like an error due to a wrong path set in the GRUB configuration. Are you certain you have set the correct number for your device? Do you have 3 separate hard drives on your device?

Sorry for the late reply. Frankly I don't know how to help you, I can only repeat that to me it looks an error in the partition path. Try double checking what number has your distribution been assigned to terminal.
Guys, FYI we are reworking the INSTALL=1 installer. It should be done within 2-3 weeks. Initial release might be unofficial.
i clicked remix os on the grub and this messages shows up
error: cant find command `linuxefi';
error: cant find command `initrdefi'.

Can I set the data partition to a specific partiorion on my hdd ??
I have booted RemixOS with no problems however i think it would be better if i could mount one of my hard disk partition as the data partition !!
How can I do that ??
I'm on Kali linux and refind bootmanager !!
Is there a way to disable the Flashing Remix OS logo and see exactly what's going on in the terminal?
It seems to stick for an awful long time on this screen. I've put the files in a seperate partition in Ubuntu /dev/sda3 (hd0,3)
The boot sequence seems to go fine right until this screen, and I'm using the UVESA=1920x1080
I have a Lenovo laptop, booting in legacy mode with an intel chipset.
Thanks for your help
Lisa
This can only be done when install Remix to flash drive? What about hard drive?

This guide is for installing it to the hard drive?
Just make sure to check what the updates in the install procedure are, as you were informed the INSTALL=1 will be reworked and something might've changed.

I'm quite sure there was a full text boot option somewhere, try Googling it. As far as I could remember, the flashing logo was there when the install procedure wasn't completed successfully. Can you boot from a USB drive?
Make sure to see the last few posts. @Vioner informed the install=1 will be reworked.

Thanks, but I managed to work out what my problem was, you need to ensure the SRC= command points to the remix 'system.img' I wrote everything up here for those still having problems:

Awesome, happy to hear you worked it out.
My dear users,
As soon as I ran TronScript (r/tronscript) with the auto restart option, I received a message stating that Windows could not boot. After loading Hiren's Boot CD into my Ventoy drive, it now says "Your PC could not start properly" with error code 0x0000001.
The following are the contents of my Ventoy drive:
A boot CD for Hiren is included,
This is HP.
Windows 11 Installation media.
I would appreciate any help you could provide to fix my computer as soon as possible.

Run Startup Repair from a recovery disc. If you do not have a recovery disc, you can use installation media.
By means of RUFUS create a bootable USB-stick containing the Windows version / edition you want to have installed and boot from USB-stick created to install it.
Since you have Ventoy, you could try booting from the Hiren live CD and try to download a fresh copy of Win11 over wayback (if your pc has nothing of important in it), even tho firsthand it could be better to get another spare usb stick and flash Ventoy on it all over again and then paste the win11 iso file over the brand new usb stick.
In case there's personal data you'd like to save over the C:/ drive, using any linux live usb iso could be of help on mounting the partition and save whatever you could find on another removable media.
Wondering why Hiren’s BootCD PE (Preinstallation Environment) should get used: it's based on Windows 10 PE x64. There are no official updates after November 2012.

If that won't go (also, disregarding the whole update cycle...i'm sure 2012 wasn't even the date of release for win10, let alone a forked version), then a linux live usb iso should directly be of help.
Updates, EOLs versions, and whatever stay out of the question since here it's about restoring a pc to it's former state.
Since it's all a matter to use the ruined machine's specs as a host for running a live iso and grab a win11 iso off the internet and drag it on another usb flash drive (with Ventoy installed aswell):
then what matters is that the machine gets saved and that win11 gets restored back.
IMO it never does make sense to make use of a Windows Recovery Environment ( WinRE ) - what Hiren's PE by nature is - to repair a corrupted Windows OS, because user most times doesn't know 1. what the error code reported by Windows means - as that's the case here, and 2. what 3rd-party app of those dozens that came bundled with Hiren's PE ( see here: https://www.hirensbootcd.org/hbcd-v120/ ) lastly to use to fix the given problem : Re-installing Windows OS from the scratch is the only time-saving method I know of to immediately have a properly running Windows machine. And this is correctly done by a Windows Preinstallation Environment ( WinPE ) what supports these features
Batch files and scripts, including support for Windows Script Host (WSH), and ActiveX Data Objects (ADO), and optional support for PowerShell.
Applications, including Win32 application programming interfaces (APIs) and optional support for HTML Applications (HTA).
Drivers, including a generic set of drivers that can run networking, graphics, and mass storage devices.
Image capturing and servicing, including Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM).
Networking, including connecting to file servers using TCP/IP and NetBIOS over TCP/IP via LAN.
Storage, including NTFS, DiskPart, and BCDBoot.
Security tools, including optional support for BitLocker and the Trusted Platform Module (TPM), Secure Boot, and other tools.
Hyper-V, including VHD files, mouse integration, mass storage and network drivers that allow Windows PE to run in a hypervisor.
and more aren't in fact needed.
Better going straight to the point and reinstall win11 fresh (like i mentioned before) since the message given by OP's machine just went:
"Your PC could not start properly"
Since OP did mention it has a "Windows 11 Installation media" inside their Ventoy stick, they could try to solve it that way by doing the whole booting process again.
If the Installation Media won't go, then it's better taking a win11 .iso on the go (of course, again, using a spare usb. Would spare making this message longer).

As I can see the versions 2012 and/or 2021 - you linked to - differ only in amount of bundled 3rd-party progs ( mostly freeware ). But this wasn't the point.
Hello,
As soon as I also ran TronScript (r/tronscript) with the auto restart option, I received a message stating that Windows could not boot. After loading Hiren's Boot CD into my Ventoy drive, it now says "Your PC could not start properly" with error code 0x00001.
Error code 0x00001 ( 0x0000001 ? ) usually occurs when Windows PC users attempt to update or install a Windows OS on their devices. Make use of the Windows built-in System File Checker function to deal with your issue.

so i have windows 11 on the drive that came with it. but i wanted Linux on there as well so i put POP OS on my secondary drive but i didn't put the home partition. so whenever i try to boot into windows it boots into the next device on the list. i reformatted the SSD and Linux is gone and it doesn't show up in bios anymore but I still cant get into windows. is there any way to fix this without losing any of the accounts on my laptop and any apps and files either? if not ill just reinstall windows. also the files are still there becuase i can use ventoy to search and boot into windows
Use your installation media to boot into rescue mode. From there you should be able to repair your boot path. Use Google to find more information on this.
So you need First Space for Windows 11 UEFI and Space for Linux and SWAP Partition!!! When ya have it you can Download BCD_&_BOOT First the Universal_USB_Installer.exe and Run it and choose your Linux Distro and the ISO File you have to make a Bootable USB Setup Device!!!When you would know i can explain CMD Method to do so!!! when ya have Finished the Process, youre Ready to Boot your Linux to Install from USB!!!Do so, boot from USB!!!Start your Install and Finish it!! at grub2 Setup it Automaticly add all OSs to grub2 so the Linux with Options and the Windows Bootmanager!!! So That means from grub2 you can start Linux and Windows Bootmanager!!!Thats the grub2 First and when you start Windows Bootmanager the Windows starts!! Thats a Option to Use it, in past it was possibile with EASYBCD to add Linux grub2 Entry to BCD so that you can start from grub2 and boot to Bootmanager and go back to grub2...........endless!!!
The Easier Method is!!!
BCD_&_BOOT Download AIO_BOOT.zip
Make Space for Windows/Multiboot/Linux/Swap!!
so it means create with diskmgr or diskpart a Primary Partition "Multiboot" with 25-*GB Space on it!!!
than Extract AIO_BOOT.zip to Partition "Multiboot" so you have the Files at root.
than start "Multiboot" AIOCreator.exe and choose "Bootloaders" and klick GRUB2 and Install it!!
After That goto "Integration" and choose "Rubrik" than the "Version" and than select the ISO File!!!
Klick OK and wait if the Process Finished!!!
Congratulations you added your First Option
Now redo the Steps to add so many ISOs like Linux/Windows/Android/RescueLiveCDs/BackUp,etc..... to add this at Multiboot Options at Start!!!
So close the AIOCreator.exe and start your PC new into BIOS and select the First Boot Device to the Multiboot Partition!!
when its Start correct you seen all added ISOs you can start to LiveCD or Install,and search 4 Grub to start Linux,and start Windows from HDD to start Windows!!!
Its one of the Best Multiboot Solutions i have found on InterWebZ!!!
My Config looks so

Why not make use of Windows 11 inbuilt native Linux named WSL2?
How to install Linux WSL2 on Windows 10 and Windows 11
The latest version of the Windows Subsystem for Linux is a significant upgrade; for most, it's now easier than ever to install.

Yes iam do this is a alternative but its not the same as the installed Linux distro, and the Virtual maschine processes take ca 2gb on memory without using it in Windows so says my TaskManager List, Sortet to Biggest Memory use!!! and ya can use Android via WSL2 but its too not the same as the Live/Installed Android Version!!! Windows has made a good working CrossPlatform with it!!!but WSL2 Linux is only NonGUI and Text based but i like the GUI in specially i use Kali-Linux wile it is Debian Based!!!The Android Apps ya can use with WSL2 Android are good shared at WindowsMenu and works Fine!!!In the End I Like the GUI with LiveCD/Installed Version than its what it is a non Windows OS based SystemSoftware that must be stand alone, so iam think!!!
If the computer can boot to Windows successfully after removing the new hardware, try installing the hardware again. If the problem persists, the hardware likely is incompatible or defective. If there is no new hardware in the computer and the computer cannot boot to Windows, continue to the next section below.
Activate restore point
If Windows restore points were created, you could try to activate a restore point before the Windows boot issue started to occur. Since Windows is not booting normally, you can try accessing Safe Mode to activate a restore point.
Open the Safe Mode menu.
Select the Safe Mode with Command Prompt option in the menu.
At the command prompt, type rstrui.exe and press Enter.
Follow the instructions and prompts provided to find and activate a restore point before Windows started having issues booting to Windows normally.
If activating a restore point does not work to fix the Windows boot problem, or there are no restore points available, try the Windows Repair process.
