This wasn’t a dip, this was coordinated theft.

Step 1: Force Windows into Recovery Mode (WinRE)

If Windows won’t boot, we need the recovery environment.

Power on the computer

As soon as you see the Windows logo or spinning dots → hold the power button to force it off

Repeat this 2–3 times

On the next start, Windows should say:
“Preparing Automatic Repair”

If that doesn’t appear, let me know — there’s a USB fallback.

Step 2: Use Startup Repair (safe, fast)

Once in the blue recovery screen:

Troubleshoot → Advanced options → Startup Repair

Choose the Windows 11 installation

Let it run

Reboot when finished

👉 If it boots, you’re done.
👉 If it fails, keep going.

Step 3: Roll back the broken update (very often the fix)

Back to:

Troubleshoot → Advanced options

Try these in order:

A. Uninstall latest quality update

Select Uninstall Updates

Choose Uninstall latest quality update

Reboot

B. If that fails, uninstall feature update

Same menu

Uninstall latest feature update

Reboot

⚠️ This does not delete files.

Step 4: Boot into Safe Mode

If updates are stuck mid-install:

Troubleshoot → Advanced options → Startup Settings → Restart

When it reboots, press:

4 = Safe Mode

5 = Safe Mode with Networking (preferred)

If you gets in:

Open Settings → Windows Update

Pause updates

Reboot normally

Step 5: Fix a “pending update” loop (command line)

This one is gold for update-brick situations.

From Advanced options → Command Prompt:

Type exactly (one line at a time):

dism /image:C:\ /cleanup-image /revertpendingactions

Wait for it to finish, then:

exit

Reboot.

This explicitly tells Windows:

“Stop trying to finish the update that’s killing me.”

Step 6: Last non-destructive option – System Restore

If you had restore points enabled:

Troubleshoot → Advanced options → System Restore

Pick a restore point before the update attempt.

Step 7: If none of this works

At that point the choices are:

In-place repair using a Windows 11 USB (keeps files)

Reset this PC → Keep my files

Both are recoverable, but usually you won’t need to go this far.

Two quick questions that help me tailor this:

Do you see “Preparing Automatic Repair” at all?

Does the failure happen after a reboot during “Working on updates”?

Tried several techniques/tricks from Google, but has had to get a copy of windows 10 to reinstall. All non-backed up data lost.

Get an Apple.

If you look in the lower left hand corner everyone on the internet noticed that this video was posted before the crash even occurred, come on guys

He published the video 16 hours before the crash came. How is that possible you guys. Whoever’s making these videos in some alphabet agency. They want to know does he represent the CCP or the CIA. You will need to click on the Youtube link on the right hand side to open it up on the YT player, because you can’t see the timestamp from gold tent

Steve Rhodes on the tiger tv 11 am show said he put win 11 updates on his pcs  this week and it messed up all his trading software

https://www.theverge.com/news/869199/microsoft-windows-11-unmountable-boot-volume-issue-january-2026-update

I haven’t had a problem yet, but there are updates pending. A problem that will not allow computer to boot. Apparently very serious issue within the last week or so. Does anyone know about it? Help!!

correction?  gap fill?  or reversion to trend?

both the silver chart you posted @ 03:49 and the gdx chart you posted @15:45 show a pretty consistent trend line from late in november to early in january.

in each case those trend lines, if extended to the present, put us just about where we find ourselves as of this afternoon’s closing.

“curiouser and curiouser, said alice.”

He said he wants to buy 200 million in junk silver and he told dealers stand up and tell me which guys have it

I guess on the new Fed Chairman.

So, Shanghai’s pm fix was $125.61. The worst thing that could happen is that their am fix on Sunday night drops down to $100 and lends credence to this paper disaster today.

I wonder what Scott Bessent thought about all this today? Or that Bateman guy who bought over a million ounces?

If this is truly a supply problem I think we’re good.

What you witnessed today was how everyone who shorted the futures on the way up profits. Look for a turnaround Monday or Tuesday unless today was some sort of intermediate top.

If other world markets stay higher, the arbitragers will have a field day. The big players always have other ways to profit. I haven’t checked the options markets. I would guess the market maker is long gone until markets settle down.

APMEX still has inventory to sell . Buybacks are at a minimum of $20,000.

Silver up 18.6%.

I think it’s the CIA in drag… Just use your own brain don’t listen to this moron (below)

This was posted before the the pick. If not Judy Shelton sound money gold backed  down side risk and that’s what happened. Some truth in why paper price crash but who knows if comex pulled something to get the metal for 80 instead of 130.  It will rebound.

and gaps work both ways…we have filled both downside gaps but left an upside gap at 104.65…….

The scum are high-fiving each other as Silver suffered its worst daily drop since 1980.

Orchestrated? Planned? Who knows, but the damage done has been severe. Will probably take ages to gain back what we lost in a snap of the fingers….

Forced selling for funds that have to rebalance at the end of the month, is all that I can think of. As Gold and Silver appreciate in value, the particular fund can only adhere to a specific % of that commodity. As prices have gone up, the percentages have also gone up. It’s hard for me to believe that it was simply that that caused the carnage today. I did some buying of PM stocks. Not sure if that was wise or not…

Maybe, someone should halt shorting except the general public traders till they find out what happened. They halted the public traders buying for the hedge fund  shorts. The SEC should do the same to them.  That wasn’t a normal sell off.
