Hardware and software setup

Hard West is out? Does an error pop up? Screen resolution not available? - Problem solving. First, let's find out what this error means.

Error 0xc0000005 is found in windows 7 and windows 10 and 8 operating systems quite often.

It first arose after the updates released by Microsoft for the second half of 2013 for all versions operating system.

When does the problem appear?

The update released by the developer is aimed at changing a number of important system files to improve their level of security.

The error occurs when the user starts programs.

In this case, it is impossible to guess which program will not want to run.

Follow instructions:

  • Turn on the start menu;
  • In the application search field, find the command line;
  • Click on it with the right mouse button and select Run as device administrator from the drop-down list, as shown in the figure below;

  • In the window that opens, enter the following command: wusa.exe /uninstall /kb:2859537 and press Enter;
  • If the above command does not work, type wusa.exe /uninstall /kb:2872339 or wusa.exe /uninstall /kb:2882822 or wusa.exe /uninstall /kb:971033 instead and press Enter;
  • The past action allows you to access the utility for rolling back the last update installed in the operating system. Now go to the computer control panel and go to the tab to remove applications;
  • Click on the "view updates" button to see the executable files that need to be removed. The figure below shows the file to be deleted. If such a file is not in the list, the update was completely removed using the command line;

Now restart your Personal Computer or a laptop so that all saved files disappear completely and the update no longer appears.

Uninstall updates using Control Panel

You can also uninstall updates using the Control Panel. Go to the update control center.

On the right side of the screen, click on the tab to view all previous installed updates from Microsoft.

In the window that opens, you will see a list of all the executable files. They can be sorted by date to help you find the data package you need more quickly.

After sorting, all packages will be divided into categories. In the Windows 200 category are required files. They are shown in the figure below:

Remember! To completely remove the update, you must clear the entire category of Windows 200. To erase the package, you must remove one element at a time. In total, there are more than two hundred files in the category that need to be destroyed. This is not a very convenient way. It makes more sense to use the command line, where the removal process is described with just one short command.

Let's consider how to fix the error and what to do if you cannot even launch the control panel. An error in the wusa.exe utility also causes a problem.

There are several ways to bypass the restriction on the inclusion of all programs of the operating system:

  • Start the Windows operating system in safe mode. This is one of the most basic and reliable ways to troubleshoot any problem that occurs while working with the OS;
  • Turn off your computer or restart it;
  • During the next power on, in the first few seconds after the screen lights up, press the F8 button. With its help, a window for setting additional boot options for the operating system will open. It looks like this:

  • Use the navigation keys to select the download option using safe mode. Perhaps this option will take a little longer to turn on than usual;
  • After the system starts, uninstall the updates using any of the above methods: using the command line, the uninstall program window, or using the Update Install Center.

If your system was very badly affected due to this problem, then most likely the boot option using safe mode will not work either.

In this case, you will have to apply more complex measures to fix the problem:

  • Turn off the computer and turn it on again;
  • Go to the window of additional download options, as was done in the previous instructions of the article;
  • Select the operating system troubleshooting item, as shown in the figure below and press Enter;

  • Now select the language you need and enter the computer administrator password;
  • If there is no menu item for recovery, you need to boot the operating system using removable media: a USB flash drive or a regular disk. Take an image of exactly the OS that is installed on the computer;
  • Insert the external media into the drive;
  • Turn on the computer and change the boot order in BIOS. And the first place must be put the name of the drive in which the disk with the OS is inserted;
  • Exit the BIOS menu, if the launch did not occur, restart the computer;
  • After restarting, the OS installation window should appear;
  • At the bottom of the window, click on the item "Restore the operating system";
  • Now in the window that opens, select the command line;
  • To continue fixing the problem, remember which hard drive your operating system is installed on. It is usually located on system drive WITH;
  • If you don't remember which drive the OS is installed on, enter the notepad command at the command line to call standard program text notepad;
  • Click on the File toolbar and use the Open key to turn on File Explorer. See which disk has Windows folder- That's what it is HDD with OS;
  • Now turn off notepad and return to the command line;
  • Enter the command DISM /Image:C:\ /Get-Packages in it. In our case, C is the drive on which the operating system is located;
  • After executing the command, a lot of data will be displayed in the window. Among them, you must select the rows with the update number, as shown in the figure below;

  • Mark the lines, following the example of the one highlighted in the image above, to the clipboard. To do this, select it with the mouse and click on right button mice. In the pop-up window, select the copy field;
  • Enter the command DISM /Image:C:\ /Remove-Package /PackageName:here-name-of-the-copied-package;
  • Execute the command by pressing the Enter button;
  • If you find a few more service packs, do the same for them;

The instruction allows you to remove service packs from the operating system.

Now you can remove the disk or flash drive with the OS image from the drive, set up the standard boot queue in BIOS and turn on the system in a standard way.

Other ways to fix the problem

Disable Automatic Updates in Windows Center

This will allow you to avoid re-installing components that we previously removed that cause an error when you turn on programs.

Operating system rollback

You can also roll back the operating system. Remember when the error started to appear. Turn on the control panel and go to the restore points window.

Select and run the one that was created before the problem occurred.

bootrec /FixBoot

bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd

After entering all the commands, restart the PC. If Windows 7 did not start in a healthy mode, then the malfunction data may contain the name of the problematic file (for example, the extension library .dll). If the file name was specified, then you need to try to make a search given file on the Internet and place it on your hard drive in the required directory (in most cases, this is the windows\system 32 folder).

Conclusion

So, what to do with the “Startup Repair Offline” problem? The simplest and effective method is the use of OS startup recovery by applying boot disk or flash drive. If the system restore method did not fix the problem, then use command line. Also check the integrity of all computer connections and BIOS settings.
