    %AppData% command doesn't work from Windows key + R shortcut


    Hi,

    Since 2 or 3 days, I can't open the AppData\Roaming folder via the execute program.

    I tried to run the sfc /scannow command in an elevated command prompt, and there was no problem detected.

    I also tried to run the gci env: command in an elevated PowerShell and the path is good.

    I can access this folder by typing %appdata% in the file explorer bar. The shell:appdata command also works in the execute program.

    Can anyone help me solving this problem ? Thank you for the help and sorry for my bad english...

    Here is a capture of the popup which appears when I'm trying to run the %appdata% command.

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Windows 10 shortcut key not working - Please help

    Hey guys,

    I'm trying to create a shortcut key for a program/script that turns off my monitor. I've confirmed that the small program is working by double clicking on it. The problem I'm having is that when I go to create a shortcut key for it. First I create a shortcut to the program, then I set a shortcut key, say "ctrl-shift-s". After applying the changes, clicking Ok, I try to use the shortcut by pressing the ctrl-shift-s key combination. When I do this, nothing happens. I've confirmed that shortcut keys works with other apps like the Command Prompt. Does anyone have any insight to this?

    Cheers,

    grecinos
