Windows 10 first-time startup error

Post by Delirium2938 »

I was turning on Windows 10 for the first time. The Windows 10 logo stayed on for a few minutes, then it showed a "critical error" message box. The startup only showed the logo, not the loading animation. I don't know what happened, but it would be nice if you figured it out.

Logs almost always fit when zipped. But if you're using an M1 or M2 Mac, don't bother with the log. Please see M1/M2 Mac 7.0 Beta Status.
XP is the latest Windows OS reported working on the M1/M2 beta. More modern Windows won't run. Similar limits in Linux.
