Windows 10 considerations

Windows 10 22H2 is supported, but some higher-impact package repairs are restricted for safety. Windows 10 LTSC may intentionally lack Microsoft Store components; the scanner should treat that context differently from a damaged consumer installation.

Organization-managed computers

WSUS, managed proxy, security policy, Store restrictions, and disabled services may be intentional. Do not override organization policy. Contact the administrator when the scan identifies a managed environment.

Useful preparation

  • Install pending Windows and Microsoft Store updates.
  • Keep enough free space for game and package operations.
  • Connect external game drives before scanning.
  • Close active games, launchers, and installers.
  • Save work before any repair that may recommend a restart.

Tested scenario matrix

The project includes Windows 10/11 scenarios for healthy systems, disabled Gaming Services, missing Xbox packages, time/TLS problems, VPN use, managed proxy, external drives, GPU evidence, anti-cheat context, and large shader caches. A documented matrix is not the same as certification on every PC configuration.
