Urban legends related to Windows

Windows Server has a "previous startup configuration" and is of course available.If Windows does not start properly, open the "Detailed Boot Options" and select "Configuration at the time of the previous start (details)" to avoid the problem and start normal (screen 1).。

The following screen 2 is the same boot option menu in the latest version of "Windows 10", but there is nothing equivalent to "the configuration (details) at the time of the last startup (details)".The same is true for the latest "Windows 11".More specifically, this is from "Windows 8".

In fact, a high -speed startup was introduced, the [F8] key was abolished immediately after the power was launched, and a modern boot menu (blue background menu) was introduced.The "time configuration" option has been disabled by default (as described later).As described in the following documentation, the "Windows 7" has certainly existed and was available.

Windows is stored in many of the system settings that include drivers and service configurations in the registry "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ System \ CurrentControlset" key.This key is physically loaded from the registry hybese file "System" in the "C: \ Windows \ System32 \ Config" directory.
