Hello guys i just install windows 10 after this i just install Elementary OS as a second system. And today when i try to open windows i have CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED error and when i open with elementart os and look gparted it says :

Name : Microsoft Reserved Partition File System : Unknown Size : 16.00 Mib Flags: msftres Status : Not mounted

Warning : Unable to detect file system! Possible reasons are: - The file system is damaged - The file system is unknown to GParted - There is no file system available (unformatted) - The device entry /dev/sda3 is missing.

i search about it but i cant find any solution. Thanks for any help :)

Edit : i install Windows 10 and same day Elementary OS but after that i could use windows bootloader too. İ mean i could use both system. One night i was close computer and morning i cant open Windows

4. It said that it cant be repaired and pc close.

The Microsoft Reserved partition is normally empty -- it doesn't even contain a filesystem. Thus, an inability of GParted to detect a filesystem on it is normal. That said, it's unclear precisely what is producing those messages, so it could be something else is going on, like failing disk hardware. Posting a clearer description of what you do to get those messages from GParted (perhaps including screen shots) might be worthwhile. You might also try collecting SMART data on the disk to check its health, in case the disk is failing.

You're more likely to get results by focusing on the Windows boot failure, though. I'm not a Windows expert, so I likely won't be able to help much, but you should answer some additional questions to provide those who might be able to help with more information:

  • Were you ever able to boot Windows after installing Elementary OS? (If not, then something about the Elementary OS installation may have damaged Windows. If you could boot to Windows, even once, after installing Elementary OS, then it's more likely to be a Windows-centric failure.)
  • What does your partition table look like? The output of sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda or sudo parted /dev/sda print in Elementary OS should be informative (although Windows folks might prefer the output of Windows tools -- but as you can't boot Windows, that will be harder to obtain).
  • What is the exact and complete sequence of events from power on to failure? Posting a video may be helpful, or at least a sequence of screen shots.

One other possibility occurs to me: If you accidentally created a mixed-mode installation (Windows in EFI mode and Linux in BIOS mode, or vice-versa), this might explain your problem. To help diagnose this possibility, please run the Boot Repair utility and select the "Create BootInfo Summary" option. (DO NOT click "Recommended Repair," at least not yet!) When asked whether to upload the report, click "Yes," and then post the URL provided here.
