    Random Computer freezes/BSODs into Repeated BSOD Cycles as PC Reboots


    Hello Friends,

    I am currently experiencing issues with my computer that has windows 10 installed. Recently it has been randomly freezing, forcing me to restart it, or blue screening. When the computer reboots it falls into a repeat cycle of Blue screening into rebooting, until the trouble shooting menu is reached.

    I have attempted to do a system restore but the process failed. The details of the failure were:
    "System restore failed to extract the original copy of the directory from the restore point.
    Source:%ProgramFiles%\WindowsApps
    Destenation: AppxStaging
    System Restore ran out of disk space while restoring your files"

    After a while of continually restarting my computer, it occasionally gets to the log in screen, and will either blue screen again or run normally depending on whether or not i'm lucky.

    The attached dump is from yesterday, I've had a couple more blue screens since.

    I would appreciate any help. Just let me know if you need any more information.

    Thanks!

    There are no dumps in months, but the disk space is indeed a problem.
    It is recommended to free up space to at least 15%, Windows needs at least 10-15% free space on EACH partition to not annoy the user. 15% is to be on the safe side, 10% is the minimum and only accounts for very large hard drives, that is the only exception.
    Free up space until you have 70GB free on your C partition.

    Hey axe0, thanks for getting back to me.

    Lol, I guess I'm an idiot. I didn't realize my C drive was full. Was this what was likely causing the blue screens? I just cleared 100 gb so I guess we'll find out.

    Oh, and since the crash files didn't record any history of recent events should I just close this tread and make another if this problem repeats?

    It cannot be said what a possible could be because nothing that normally would be saved couldn't be saved because of the space issue. Because nothing is saved there is no data to get even the smallest lead from for an indication or something.

    Stick with this thread for now :)

    At least 25GB free space is required for a memory dump, if that cannot be written a mini dump can't be written either and a mini dump is what we use for analysis

    Ah, I see. I'll definitely keep the space open then. I'll let you know if anything new comes up.

    Thanks again!
