1
Measure before cleanup
Measure CPU, RAM, disk and logs before any optimization.
2
Check BitLocker before boot repair
Verify the recovery key and BitLocker status before any boot repair.
3
BSOD = dump
The minidump and Stop Code matter more than assumptions.
4
DISM then SFC
Check the Windows image before repeatedly running SFC.
5
Back up the profile
Back up user data before recreating a profile.
6
Vendor driver
Prefer drivers validated by the workstation manufacturer.
Important: commands are diagnostic aids. Adapt them to your environment and validate backups, permissions and impact before corrective action.
