Windows 10 corrupt en langzaam met opstarten RB 16.11.2023

Sometimes you don’t choose the third-party backup software to make a system image for Windows 10/11 but use the Windows built-in backup tool.
Well then, how to restore Windows image backup from external hard drive? As a matter of fact, the ways are different based on different situations. Let’s see some details.
Sometimes Windows can still work normally although some system issues exist. Under this circumstance, you can restore image via the steps below.
Step 1: In Windows 10/11,
- click the Start button, hold down the Shift key, and select Restart to enter the WinRE (Windows Recovery Environment) interface.
or
- Press the Shift key while you select the Power button, and click Restart. Your PC will restart in the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) environment. Click Advanced startup > Troubleshoot > Advanced options > System Image Recovery.31 aug 2022
Step 2: Navigate to Choose an option > Troubleshoot > Advanced options > System Image Recovery. Then, follow the wizard to restore system image from external hard drive.
The first is to check the computer’s Event Viewer logs. These logs can tell you if there have been any hardware or software errors that have occurred recently, which may indicate hard drive corruption. To access these logs, press the Windows key + R, type “eventvwr.msc”, and press Enter. Once in the Event Viewer, check the Windows Logs > System and Application logs for any errors.
The second way is to use the command prompt to run a scan on the hard drive. To do this, press the Windows key + X and select Command Prompt (Admin). Once in the command prompt, type “chkdsk c: /f” and press Enter. This will scan your hard drive for any errors and repair them.
The third way is to run a diagnostic scan on the hard drive. To do this, press the Windows key + R, type “msinfo32” and press Enter. Once in the System Information window, select Components > Storage > Disks. Here you can view the SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) status of your hard drive. If any of the values are red, then this indicates that your hard drive is corrupted.
These are all good methods to check if your hard drive is corrupted. However, if you are still unsure, it is best to take it to a professional for a more in-depth analysis.
Testprogramma's
Both CrystalDiskInfo and HDDScan are useful tools for monitoring and analyzing the health of your hard drive. They both offer detailed information and have useful features that make it easier to keep track of your drive’s health.
Crystal Disk Info is a free software utility designed to check the health of your hard drive in Windows 10. It is a highly intuitive application that provides a comprehensive overview of the performance of the hard drive. The program can be used to measure the speed, temperature, and other parameters of the hard drive. It also features a graphical interface that is easy to use and understand.
Crystal Disk Info is a great tool for monitoring the health of your hard drive. The program provides detailed information about the performance of the hard drive, such as the read/write speed, temperature, and other parameters. It also displays a graph that shows the performance of the hard drive over time. The application also has a feature that allows you to check for errors and take corrective action.
Using Crystal Disk Info is fairly straightforward. When you first launch the program, it will scan your hard drive and display the results. You can then view the detailed information about the performance of the hard drive. You can also use the program to monitor the health of the hard drive over time. The program also features a graphical interface that is easy to use and understand.
HDDScan is a freeware software for hard drive diagnostics (RAID arrays servers, Flash USB and SSD drives are also supported). The program can test storage device for errors (Bad-blocks and bad sectors), show S.M.A.R.T. attributes and change some HDD parameters such as AAM, APM, etc.
S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology) is designed by IBM. It was created to monitor the disk status by using various methods and devices (sensors). A single ATA hard disk may have up to 30 such measured values, which are called attributes. Some of them directly or indirectly affect hard disk health status and others give statistical information.
How does S.M.A.R.T. function of hard disks Work? - https://www.hdsentinel.com/smart/
An attribute is correct, when the Value is greater than or equal with the Threshold.
If this is not true for a critical attribute, failure is predicted, the hard disk is considered bad and it should be replaced immediately (the attribute determines the problem). Manufacturers/vendors replace the hard disk in the terms of warranty.
The S.M.A.R.T. function in modern motherboard BIOSes warns the user at this point before booting the operating system. If the Threshold is 0 for any attribute, that attribute is not able to predict failure (because the Value cannot be less than 0).
Bad sectors?
Users often ask about what is a "bad sector", how they born and what they can do to fix these. Users are confused because verifying the disk surface with software (for example by using Windows Scandisk) does not report any problems or bad sectors.
S.M.A.R.T. is constantly analysing the disk surface during normal operations. If it finds a problematic area (one or more sectors where the data is hard to read or write), it tries to read the data and copy it to the spare area. The original location is then (internally) marked as bad and all further read/write operations pointing to the original location is then redirected to the spare area.
When the operation is completed, the original (bad) area is not accessible by software any more. Even re-install or many complete format operations will not show problems because the original bad area is not used any more. That's why software (for example Windows' Scandisk) will not found problematic sectors. Only the hardware security erase function will access this area (clearing these sectors also).
That's why for example DOS "format" command will never show bad sectors on most modern hard disks because of S.M.A.R.T. (except if the spare area is full but it is really hard to find a such hard disk).
Reallocation of the sectors may be completed with or without some errors (hard disks are working much better now compared to older models). But the reallocation procedure may cause system instability if it takes too much time.
The user should not notice anything about the steps described above - just when the number of bad sectors is high enough (the threshold is reached) and then S.M.A.R.T. predicts a possible failure.
