GOT A PROBLEM WITH YOUR PC? The answers to your woes lie somewhere buried deep inside Windows itself, you just need to know where to find them. Windows 11 may not introduce any new troubleshooting tools to the mix, but it continues to support tried and tested tools, including Device Manager, Event Viewer, and a host of troubleshooters.

We’ll take an in-depth look at these as well as some other useful tools. Reliability Monitor is built into Windows, while the third-party tools we showcase—WhoCrashed and Tweaking.com’s Windows Repair tool—are included because they provide convenient access to system logs and tools such as System File Checker and Windows’ powerful disk-checking tools.

If the tools featured can’t provide a solution to your problem, they will at least arm you with lots of useful information with which you can go hunting for solutions elsewhere using the power of the web. The answers to your problems lie hidden somewhere, either within your PC or out on the wider internet, and in the unlikely event you’re left stumped, you can always contact us directly for help—email doctor@maximumpc.com with your problem and remember to include as much information as you can to help us to help you.
