On a bit of a tangent, I started a new job a couple of weeks ago and was
given a Dell Inspiron 7000, with windows 10 installed.  It was randomly
resetting, locking up or keys stopped working. I searched on the web for
solutions and came up with graphic card drivers as the cause, it wasn't

Eventually I installed a personal copy of Norton on my work machine, it
found 20+ viruses non of which Defender had caught. Then I ran this script
to clean up the image.

fsutil resource setautoreset true c:\&fsutil usn deletejournal /d /n
c:&Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup&&sfc
/scannow&Dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth&sfc
/scannow&Dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup
/ResetBase&pause

After that it's been a joy to use.

Davy.
