        This is every forum response on MS forums, it’s infuriating.

        “I have super specific error code with super specific driver that was changed with super specific windows update.”

        “Me too!”

        “Same, here’s some more info from event viewer”

        “Maybe try uninstalling the device”

        “Uninstall my WiFi card?”

        “Hi I’m bob from Microsoft you should run sfc scan now and that will fix it”

        “That didn’t fix it”

        “Ok here’s how to reinstall windows”

        And then try DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth and DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth that’ll get rid of the 9GB file for sure. If not, reinstall everything again and again and again.

          If I remember correctly, it scans system files and replaces broken/corrupted ones. It can work on some issues, but it’s not a fix all thing.

        Not everyone has the luxury of choosing where they work. People need to eat. Are some people complacent? Sure. But that doesnt mean every person working at Microsoft is a horrible person.

            Thanks mate, I’m not American and although I have money, I can’t get to a psychiatrist.

            Don’t worry, it’s not emotional.

            What is wrong with you that makes you think this is an appropriate response to “I am planning a suicide”? As somebody who has stared down the business end of a 12 gauge solution, you’re frankly despicable.

              Because, judging by the number of upvotes, it’s supposed to be sarcasm all the way down the comment chain. That is, until you arrived, which makes sense why no one invites you to parties.

                This makes no logical sense lol. OP says he’s going to commit suicide, his comment gets upvotes, therefore his comment is sarcasm?? Right or wrong this is just an awful way to decide. How others react to something isn’t indicative of that thing’s original intent… That should be pretty obvious.

                  Because, given the preposterous tone of the original comment, which provides zero evidence of any truth, we all used our individual deduction that it was posted in jest as sarcasm. That is, until you came along and made it evident that a small minority of people here including yourself are “Debbie Downers” and should be avoided.
