Update (Anniversary?) can't reboot; device missing
Windows 10 x64 build 10240 on an old HP Envy desktop. Every morning when I look at the computer it has a cyan screen saying:
If I turn it off then on, it boots just fine. All other methods of rebooting work. Disconnecting all external drives makes no difference. SFC reports fixing corrupt files but doesn't help. Chkdsk c: /r/f doesn't help.Code:Recovery There was a problem with a device connected to your PC An unexpected I/O error has occurred Error code 0x000000e9
In the System Event log I find:
Level Date and Time Source Event ID Task CategoryInformation 2/28/2017 5:15:03 AM User32 1074 None "The process C:\Windows\system32\svchost.exe (DESKTOP-OJ4CM2D) has initiated the restart of computer DESKTOP-OJ4CM2D on behalf of user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM for the following reason: Operating System: Service pack (Planned) Reason Code: 0x80020010 Shutdown Type: restart Comment: "
Followed by messages about stuff shutting down, and a long hiatus until the stuff after my reboot shows up.
There's some other weirdness; many of my Start menu entries disappeared (all my Adobe stuff, Notepad++, Office365, ...) although the programs are still there. All the tiles I added to the Start menu have disappeared. All non-shortcuts have a large piece of paper icon where the arrow would be on a shortcut. When I search for a program and right-click on the result there's no "Pin to Start" or "Pin to Taskbar" entries.
