“Reviewing the newspapers” should produce an observation that clearly confirms or rules out “graphic driver or acceleration in conflict”.
If the observation is normal, lower “graphic driver or acceleration in conflict” in the ranking and continue with the next distinct check.
If the observation is abnormal, keep the evidence and investigate “graphic driver or acceleration in conflict” first. Related action: update or return to the wrong graphic driver.
Check if explore.exe starts in the session.
“Test Explore” should produce an observation that clearly confirms or rules out “user profile or GPO problematic”.
If the observation is normal, lower “user profile or GPO problematic” in the ranking and continue with the next distinct check.
If the observation is abnormal, keep the evidence and investigate “user profile or GPO problematic” first. Related action: examine recently modified GPO or RDP optimizations.
Repeat the same validation test after the correction and confirm the original symptom is gone. Validate stability before closing the incident.
