How to fix error 0x00000006 in Windows 11

Solution Steps

1. 1 Press Windows key + X and select 'Device Manager'. Look for any device with a yellow exclamation mark. Right-click it and select 'Update driver'. If that doesn't help, right-click and select 'Uninstall device', then restart. Windows will reinstall the driver. This removes potentially buggy drivers.
2. 2 Open Command Prompt as administrator (Win+R, type 'cmd', Ctrl+Shift+Enter). Type 'sfc /scannow' and press Enter. This repairs corrupted system files. Restart after completion.
3. 3 If SFC found issues, run 'DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth' in the same Command Prompt. This repairs the system image. Restart after completion.
4. 4 Press Windows key + R, type 'eventvwr.msc', and press Enter. In Event Viewer, go to 'Windows Logs' > 'System'. Look for errors that occurred just before the BSOD. Note the source (e.g., a driver name) and event ID. This can help identify the problematic driver.
5. 5 If you recently installed new software or drivers, try uninstalling them. Press Windows key + I to open Settings, go to 'Apps' > 'Installed apps', and sort by date. Uninstall any recent installations that might be related.
6. 6 Perform a clean boot: Press Windows key + R, type 'msconfig', and press Enter. Go to the 'Services' tab, check 'Hide all Microsoft services', and click 'Disable all'. Then go to the 'Startup' tab and click 'Open Task Manager'. Disable all startup items. Restart. If the error doesn't occur, re-enable services one by one to find the culprit.
7. 7 If the error persists, consider a repair install using the Windows 11 Media Creation Tool. Download it, run it, and choose 'Upgrade this PC now'. This reinstalls Windows while keeping your files.
