Many of these files are hard linked in the WinSxS (side-by-side) directory. Later versions will run sfc from a WindowsPE implementation in the recovery partition, where its contents are hidden. Installing Windows 7/10 etc.. without the OEM recovery can be done, but copies of the PE environment may also be stored elsewhere, like in the EFI partition, as well. Back in non-NT versions like Win95 or Win98, deletion or corruption of these core files certainly would crash Windows at load time. Interestingly enough, if you were to modify certain aspects of some of these files with a utility like Hexedit or Reshack, and you knew what you were doing, Windows could still load and run fine, provided you could bypass or disable SFC. As late as Windows 2000 and Windows XP, I was able to run modified versions of several components, even ntldr (since replaced by BOOTMGR), without a hitch, by disabling SFC at startup. Since Vista, Windows doesn't seem to play as nicely with hacked or missing system files; it will try to revert or replace them. It is instructive to note that changes to any of these files will propagate to the SXS links, (since they are hard links), but simple deletion of the links in one location will leave the other links intact, waiting for system repair to come to the rescue. Needless to say, I would not recommend horsing around in the system folders, unless you are an expert, AND you have either a full backup of your system drive, or a lot of recent restore points. You may just end up doing a clean install after only one silly mistake.

Hi, If you ever have problems deleting a file, you can use a Program called Process Hacker. There is an addon for it called "run as Trusted installer". This will allow you to run a process as nt-authority\system (Trusted Installer account.) This should allow you to delete anything.

Windows is basically an axolotl: it can regrow/repair any part of itself. Also, you could just delete the C: drive in software. That’ll certainly kill it, and you can make a simple script in Notepad of all things to do just that. Easy as pie.

Wow this video has so much useful information. And I like the fact that you are doing all of this just because to see if it is possible. 😂 Would love to see a video on how to delete WBM after formating disk partitions in Windows installation menu, because I can't find anything on that topic anywhere and it still shows in BIOS. 😏

Ya know, I assumed that was the file you needed to delete. I am glad you went through your thought process though

"Can You DESTROY Your Computer by Deleting ONE File?" No. Files live on filesystems, so the most you could "DESTROY" by removing a file is the ability of the OS to run. That may be a problem if you're not competent to restore the file. If you remove a file that can modify the filesystem, you could in theory damage the filesystem, but in practice you'll not be able to delete a file that uses itself to perform the deletion because that file will then be open. The ntoskrnl.exe file is _not_ the Windows kernel, it's just one of several files that make up the complete OS kernel. Device drivers are kernel objects too, as are the DLLs that ntoskrnl.exe calls. In later versions of Windows, there's a hidden cache of OS files, and if you delete one while the OS is running, it will just replace it with a copy.

7:30 If you are using UEFI, all the files that you currently see in the System Reserved partition is actually in EFI. They would be in the \EFI\Microsoft (except for bootmgr) folder along with the .efi that is used to load the boot manager which is what you deleted.

Back in the early 90s I deleted autoexec.bat and config.sys from my brand new, first pc. That brainstorm forced me onto the path of being a savvy user.

i always imagine that windows is a giant spaceship gliding across an infinite landscape and it's gigantic and filled with different people that do different things and when thiojoe deletes a file, one of the people disappears from existence when the os stops working, the spaceship loses its height and ends up crashing face-first into the ground, creating a huge mound of dirt in front of it and then there's a fast-forward that shows someone looking at the big spaceship that's now covered in moss and metal plates are falling off also that repair feature actually did something holy crap

There is also hal.dll, which makes it go into system repair.

Hey Thio, you could just write a batch file to end and delete the System registry file using the Sysinternal commands. Regular kill command won't work, so you'll have to use pskill instead.

I'm curious, are there actual viruses that do this?

You can indeed reinstall the boot manager without losing any OS data but it is a bit funky. I had to do it recently and it basically involves booting into an install disk but choosing repair instead of install and doing some command prompt stuff

6:05 May Can be deleted in a mode (that I don’t remember now) but that mode try to make the less errors possible, and can delete some files while is in use. (Is obvious needs permissions)

It's actually really simple to repair. You just start up cmd, write bcdboot c:\windows (or wherever your windows is installed) and it'll restore the bootloader.

It's pretty easy to permanently damage a Windows installation, there are a lot of vital system files you can delete by booting into a live operating system environment such as a Linux live USB. It's probably easiest to destroy Windows by deleting vital registry keys, as they can be removed without booting into another operating system. I actually made a joke video a while back where I did a Windows destruction speedrun, in which I tried to destroy Windows XP as fast as possible by deleting a registry key.

can you open like an app these files? and what it shows you when you open them?

what if you rename system32 folder to system31 for example (or anything else)? Not going to try it but just wondering.

I am sorry if i asked dumb question because i don't know a lot of computers i am new to it i just want a new pc from my parents as i want to build a app and my current pc is the worst in the world my parents said i can get a new one once this stopped working . I can barely start chrome like after opening 5 tabs in chrome my pc crashes.

What software are you using for the simulated computer

Hey ThioJoe, there is a easy way to delete one registry folder and the Windows 10 machine would not start up. To do this, you need to open up regedit, expand 'HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT' and delete the '.dll' folder. After a restart the computer can't boot. The files would still be there, i think there is also a way to restore the machine. Best regards, Benjamin

Hi bro I am having issue in my laptop not turning on once i click power button it's lite up and off it's not even boot to BIOS. One i remove bios cmos battery and attach after 30 minutes it's again normally working and this happens frequently. I already have replaced coms battery and I also removed old ram and ssd and hdd then added new ram and ssd and boot new os to the ssd also updated the bios also but still now I facing the same issue. Some time it's automatically power off when playing games and giving this issue something once i power off and try to access the laptop next day it's giving this same issue can you please give me any suggestions on this issue also my laptop is not under warranty anymore.

Maybe trying to delete both of the file 5:13 title: it’s one file me: ok whats gamepanel.exe in system32

well once I moved some files and then got into trouble, windows wasn't happy ... after a few replacement it just worked back again... Basically the screen went blank and then restarted a few times too, well that's a nightmare ofcourse XD

3:04 That is not the kernel file. It's a compressed kernel image. Big difference. In Linux it's like the vmlinuz.

I think Windows learned from DOS system! Many years ago, I read a blurb in the Readers Digest in which someone said that they went to access their school’s, computer system, but it would not work. Concerned, they asked one of the top team members what happened. The response? “ I was clearing out some old files to increase. memory of the computers, and I noticed that the Spanish teacher had an extremely large file, so I deleted it.” (DOS, is also too, in Spanish!) 😳

Windows vs ThioJoe . Everybattle Windows won. ThioJoe win at end

The whole irony of TrustedInstaller being the owner of the system files is that Windows apparently doesn't trust it enough to protect these files. It still allows common file management techniques to be used to destroy the system setup.

Have you tried to delete some EFI files, that are necessary for system bootup? (Maybe its called Bootx64.efi or so, but not sure. Its also located in another partition than the actual "C:" drive)

Try deleting wininit.exe would bsod or fail windows to load on startup

hey, what virtual machine are you using?

Deleting bootmgr was the first thing I thougth. I already did that years ago while messing around with Linux and trying to make a dual boot config. Nowadays it is automatically done, but this was not the case at the tine. I could even manage to make WINDOWS XP loader to show my Linux system and let me choose it at boot. I did it just for fun.
