#Requires -Version 5.1 <# JbTecWiz Support Centre -- generated fix script Fault : STOP 0x0000001E -- KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED Fix : Find the driver when nothing is named Source: https://jbtecwiz.com/support/win-0x1e Run as : WinDbg Expect : 1-2 days Risk : medium Reversible : yes WHEN THIS IS THE RIGHT FIX The screen blames ntoskrnl.exe, which almost never means the kernel is at fault -- it means the kernel was executing on someone else's behalf. HOW TO UNDO IT verifier /reset from Safe Mode or WinRE if Verifier makes the machine unbootable. This script walks the fix one step at a time and asks before each one. Steps with no command are things you do yourself -- it prints those and waits. Run with -DryRun to print without executing. -------------------------------------------------------------------- NO WARRANTY - USE AT YOUR OWN RISK This script is provided by JbTecWiz as-is and with no warranty of any kind, express or implied.
