    INCONSISTANT winload.efi OR ntoskrnl.exe ERRORS


    Windows 10 Pro version 22H2 (OS Build 19045.3693)

    I have using this computer build for about 2 years....with multiple build versions (upgrades), and through an SSD upgrade (clone), this problem persists. I'm typing on the computer in question at this time. I have found MANY guides how to fix the problem IF IT WERE CONSISTANT.

    The unique thing about my situation is that it is INCONSISTANT! It only ever occurs when the computer is cold (shutdown overnight for example). And then, when booting, I get this bluescreen....with either the winload.efi, or the ntoskrnl.exe BSOD when windows is attempting to load....sending me into a recovery boot loop.

    To overcome the issue, I enter UEFI and poke around a bit (changing inconsequential options like fan settings or booting from a USB and then rebooting)....then try loading again. I've never had to poke around in the UEFI GUI more than 3 times...by the 3rd time, I try loading back into windows, and it boots fine without any indication of any problem, and the system is rock stable.

    I'm including a screenshot of the winload.efi file with certificate....and I attached the diag file requested for this section of the forum. This is my first post here....although I've lurked for many years and this forum has helped me many times....so thanks for all you contributors.

    Is this a company PC or your own home PC?

    In that case there is a problem with your Windows license. You're using a volume license via the KMS channel and that is not available to home users (it's for business and corporations only to volume license all their PCs)...
    Code:
    ActiveSkuDescription    : Windows(R) Operating System, VOLUME_KMSCLIENT channel
    The forum rules do not allow any discussion where there is an intellectual property violation, which there is with your Windows license I'm afraid. Since I have no wish to break the forum rules I'm afraid I cannot help...
    4. No piracy or discussion of piracy allowed at all. Such as software, music, videos and other intellectual property violations (e.g. downloading youtube videos locally etc) - it is forum policy that no help shall be given to people who knowingly steal software or services.
    From where did you get your Windows license?

    But I abandoned activating my copies long ago as activation cracks are so much more convenient...hence the KMS activation.

    sorry, but in this forum we cannot promote piracy. I get that you are from a Central American country (Belize) and that your ecnomy might now allow for buying a proper license, but I highly doubt people will be willing to help you with this license issue

    I bought a license (from the link I posted)...I just don't activate it via the official method from MS.
    You think this is the cause of the BSOD, or you're saying you won't help because I bypass my MS activation?
