Hello Windows Community folks

Windows 10 keeps crashing after I click Performance TAB in Task Manager. It crashes the windows going into the infamous Green screen with reason- Windows preview build failed. I have tried several debug options like cmd SFC Scan, DISM.

I have not specifically touched registry keys as I am afraid I will end up breaking something else.

What options do I have? Please suggest.

Thanks

J

Thanks,

this helped for me,

I changed

NVIDIA System Control > 3D Settings > Global Settings > Preferred GPU

from "NVIDIA high performance processor"

back to "auto select"

    I can repeat it as often as I want, start Task Manager click the performance tab, and voila "Blue screen". Windows 10 2004 installed here.

    Same problem here, though I've only noticed it when I click the Performance tab, since "More details" is my default.  It started happening when I was unwillingly upgraded to Version 2004.  I get BSOD SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION.  Like JaspreetSingh84, I tried SFC and DISM; neither found anything wrong with the system and neither helped.
