you should see this microsoft code I'm messing with.
they actually have for loops like this
for(;;) {
}
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

It's horrible, but I'm going to upvote it anyway because the RosselFactory deserves more than one

Adding, this is another part of their code.
You didn't like my single line ifs? check this out.
var path = new TreePath(this, pair.Key);
if (path.IsFound)
if (pair.Value.Equals(path.LeafValue))
{
_Delete(path);
return true;
}

Yes, HTCW is a bot, but the programmer who created it is not Maunder.
It's created and run by a former scriptwriter for the Wachovski brothers, Laurence, and Andrew sisters, Lana, and Lilly, who was fired while working on the pilot for Sense8, and has since been sighted in Iran, wearing a Revolutionary Guard uniform.
The programmer running this bot, is, obviously, quite gifted, technically.

I can't tell if it is my new hardware ( Original post in lounge with H/W list[^] ) or Win10.
I wiped the machine completely and reinstalled Win10. Now, it is no longer the graphics card faulting but something else. Previously, ever single error pointed to a graphics card problem. That is no longer true from the Memory.dmp to the app crashes I've seen. Also, there are far fewer crashes now.
Whatever it is, FireFox is the most consistent on crashing from the problem. That's exciting, isn't it? 
Yet Another Attempt (YAA) At Fixing Win 10
I ran the steps at : https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/929833/use-the-system-file-checker-tool-to-repair-missing-or-corrupted-system[^]
Check out the results. I cannot tell if it did do something and should expect it to be fixed or not.
https://i.stack.imgur.com/k55Nz.png[^]
I guess I should just be blindly optimistic now.
I've definitely gone thru the Stages of Grief with my new computer.
Denial - No, this isn't happening. It's a brand new computer with a activated win10 installation! 
Anger - This cannot be happening!! It's a brand new computer with activated win10 installation!!!!! 
Bargaining - Don't let this happen. Let the computer work.... 
Guilt - This is happening because I bought the wrong hardware, right?
Sorrow - Computers don't really work. It's all just a trick to make you think technology works. It doesn't matter anyways. I'll just take up knitting. 
Acceptance - It's fine. I understand that I may or may not be able to use my computer. All computing is unreliable and untrustworthy. I'm going outside.
EDIT
A few moments after I posted, bot a BSOD and when I ran WinDgb I saw this.
These are totally different errors from what I saw before the windows refresh.

*******************************************************************************
DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFER (f7)
A driver has overrun a stack-based buffer. This overrun could potentially
allow a malicious user to gain control of this machine.
DESCRIPTION
A driver overran a stack-based buffer (or local variable) in a way that would
have overwritten the function's return address and jumped back to an arbitrary
address when the function returned. This is the classic "buffer overrun"
hacking attack and the system has been brought down to prevent a malicious user
from gaining complete control of it.
Do a kb to get a stack backtrace -- the last routine on the stack before the
buffer overrun handlers and bugcheck call is the one that overran its local
variable(s).
Arguments:
Arg1: ffff09fb3a1bacca, Actual security check cookie from the stack
Arg2: 0000f1f82e75fcaa, Expected security check cookie
Arg3: ffff0e07d18a0355, Complement of the expected security check cookie
Arg4: 0000000000000000, zero

Roger,
I've looked at all your posts and images and they are all over the place... The KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE is probably due to a KPP violation. But your other screenshot shows a win32k exception... and your new screenshot shows corrupt files on disk.
Of course I don't know for sure... but I would highly suspect a hardware failure. If I were you I would stress test your RAM with the open source tool Memtest86+[^].
The KPP violation is a very strong indicator of a bad stick of RAM.
Best Wishes,

Just saying but if you can't boot the machine to run the test another way:
try starting up with just one stick in, then try the other stick also by itself.
(yes even though it's DDR PC's can run single stick.)
also side note: back to your older post
"... The computer cannot tell the difference from one boot-up to another. I don't get it"
sometimes progs like firefox immediately check for updates on first start of the day
so 2nd time reboot (mins to only a few hours later) won't run the update check

I'm typing this from Ubuntu. I wiped my entire machine (deactivated my purchased win10 home) and installed ubuntu to see if things will run or fail.
Thanks very much for checking this out. I really appreciate your time.
Randor wrote: The KPP violation is a very strong indicator of a bad stick of RAM.
I thought this too, because I know when you get this kind of random crashing that it is often RAM.
I recently opened up the machine and insured they were re-seated properly -- just to make sure.
I also ran the Built-in RAM test and it completed and said all was well.
Now that I am on Linux/Ubuntu with the NVidia drivers installed, I want to see how the machine fares.
We will see. Thanks again for your input and I will let you know.

I am fairly certain your issue is not Windows 10 fault, but something that is not integrating properly with Windows 10. I did not read your whole post as it is obnoxiously long.
I use Windows 10 on my home and work machines, no issues. Our entire Dev team uses Windows 10 with no issues.

I resemble that remark!!! 
I'm running Ubuntu with NVidia drivers with no problems at all. We will see how long this lasts.
But I can tell already that it is far more stable.
And I do wonder what the utility I ran on Win10 meant about the corrupted files. That's probably the normal state for win10 1903 or something.

why do this?
for(int i = 0;i<arr.Length;i++)
{
if(arr[i]==valueToFind)
{
break;
}
}
instead of
for(int i = 0;i<arr.Length;i++)
{
if(arr[i]==valueToFind)
{
i=arr.Length;
}
}
hengh?? why you still use break?

if it matters enough to be a purist about it, then i think it matters. if it doesn't matter to you, you're not a purist about it.

I do as well, but then i have no qualms about any out of band control flow statements except throw.
It's all in how and where you use them, IMO.

Throw doesn't belong to the control flow.
Oh, maybe I'm a bit purist after all.
|
|
|
|

i mean, i agree that it shouldn't, but it causes control flow changes and can be used that way.
but like i said, i agree. Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should.

I've seen MS themselves doing it.
Sometimes when external code that you don't have control over lacks certain functionality, it might be your only choice. (been there, done that.  )
|
|
|
|
|
right? that's why i *never* throw!
kidding!
but in seriousness I take great pains to prevent the users of my code from having to catch exceptions on failure if they don't want them.
Like I'll provide TryXXXX to complement XXXX
Pck: Code Roundup and Quick Start Guide[^]
In PCK I have an elaborate error handling system whereby it finds errors and continues processing only (optionally) throwing an exception at the end with ALL the errors it encountered.
Otherwise they're reported as "messages" with different severity/errorlevels
probably the most elaborate exception handling i've had to do in managed code.

Because break is a lot clearer - and less likely to cause problems later if the for loop end condition gets modified.

rather my point. sometimes you need a good break, continue, or even a goto (though the latter i typically reserve for generated state machines)
