laptop doesnt boot automatically

The problem is that 1903 stopped backing up the registry, thanks to Microsoft’s engineers.

So where exactly the problem resides now?

It resides nowhere unless you made a backup before your changes. If you cannot boot with a USB installer of Windows or a Ubuntu Live USB/DVD, it is a hardware issue.

I think the most likely reason for the pause is that the bios is trying to report a hardware problem. To test if that's the case, temporarily disable 'Adapter Warnings' in the bios 'Advance' page.

If with warnings turned off you no longer see a pause, then that confirms it. Unfortunately it also suggests you have a hardware fault that needs fixing

Hi,

As said in first post. I restored the registry changes made by WiseCare365, but still the issue persists. I went to the last good restore point successfully, still the issue persists.!!!

I can boot into win10 and work normally. However, the only thing is when i press power button in laptop, I also have to press any key when DELL logo shows to continue the boot process(Very annoying!!!).

Hi,

Did as you said. but still have to press a key a key to boot. (fortunately, No hardware issue!!)

Go into the BIOS setup and make sure the solid state drive is above the other one in the boot order. Be sure to save any changes. Also, make sure there isn't a non-bootable USB stick or DVD in the computer.

You might have a hardware problem to fix. Run the Dell diagnostics which requires pressing the F12 key on my laptop - else you can run the diagnostics from Dell's site.

Boot problems can sometimes be fixed by booting to a Macrium Reflect USMB repair disk and selecting the option Fix Windows Boot problems. It's best not to fiddle with registry entries and to have a full system backup to recover from

Attached snapshot of dell diagnostics.

The Macrium Reflect USMB repair disk was unable to solve the problem.

1) Increase the free space on the Windows drive so that there is 20% free space or more: (ideally 25 - 30 GB free space)
Free Up Drive Space in Windows 10

Code:

2) Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste:
chkdsk /r /v
This may take hours to run so plan to run overnight.
Run on all drives using the syntax: chkdsk /r /v C: or chkdsk /r /v D: changing the drive letter to the applicable drive.

C:\Windows\system32>chkdsk /r /v
The type of the file system is NTFS.
Cannot lock current drive.

Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be
checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)

Type: Y
reboot
