Hi Jonathan,
Thanks for reaching out. The current PROCESS1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED error may be related to the Code Integrity component in Windows, which validates the digital signature of drivers before they are loaded into memory.
Suggested Troubleshooting Steps
- Check whether the following file exists: C:\Windows\System32\CodeIntegrity\BootCat.cache
- If the file is present, rename it to: BootCat.old
- Reboot the server and verify whether the issue still occurs.
- If the problem persists, compare the contents of the following folder with a known-good system that:
- Is running the same Windows version and patch level.
- Has similar drivers installed.
- Copy only the missing files from the healthy machine to the corresponding Catroot folder on the affected machine. *Important: Do not overwrite any existing files. Only add files that are missing.
- After the missing files have been copied, reboot the affected machine and check whether the issue is resolved.
Please let me know if any further clarification is required. Thanks!
