Hello,
I had a problem with my desktop PC running W10. (Version 1803, 17134)
At first, I was getting the blue screen at startup (BAD SYSTEM CONFIG INFO) every other time. I would restart and it would work...
I also made a restore point when I had the chance.
I had read online in several tutorials (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wor7mASx3ws) that this problem could be fixed by creating a "backup" folder with the files from C:\Windows\System32\config and copying the files from the C:\Windows\System32\config\Regback folder to the config folder.
The procedure in CMD below
X:\Windows\System32> cd D:\Windows\System32\config
D:\Windows\System32\config> mkdir backup
D:\Windows\System32\config> cd D:\Windows\System32\config\Regback
D:\Windows\System32\config\Regback> copy *.* ..
Once I completed this manipulation, I realized it did not resolve the issue but made it worse, and now Windows no longer shows the blue screen or the loading screen before but directly displays "PC diagnostic" at startup or in Safe Mode...
The problem is this, I've tried several things but with no results.
And my only solution (I think, unless you have a better one) is to revert to the restore point that I created to avoid having to reinstall everything (even though I salvaged my data using cmd and an external hard drive). But I can't since I have this problem:

So is there a procedure to "enable system protection on this drive" through CMD or something else (another image on a bootable USB stick...)?
Thank you
Configuration: Windows / Chrome 70.0.3538.77

Thank you for your response.
There might be a problem with the hard drive. However, it's a Samsung EVO SSD that's less than 10 months old, which makes this unlikely.
As for the reset of Windows, I know the steps very well and I've already recovered my data. But since I have a lot of very storage-intensive software as well as many games and no CD drive, I have to redownload everything, and with a poor connection, downloading more than 300GB is very complicated.
That's why I'm trying to revert to the previous backup to be able to solve the problem directly.
In any case, thank you for your response.
But still, I have some doubts about whether this will work.
The best way to restore Windows in the future is to create a system image, see: https://www.malekal.com/creer-une-image-systeme-windows-10/
If you have two drives:
You create an image of just the system (SSD), restore it in case of problems, and you don't have to worry about what's on the second drive.
