Windows 11

Today at 9 p.m i saw error in event logs.Ive noticed an Event 4502 (Critical) 'Windows Recovery Environment. WinREAgent showed as critical. Pc working normally. But should i check disk? It happened once. Thanks

It's an ongoing issue with Windows 11, it seems. I don't even know if I ran out of partition space or not, in my case.

It happened in time when win 11 notification update pop up in taskbar.

In my case, I just disabled WinRE and deleted the WinRE partition. Because of security risks associated with an outdated WinRE.

Ah ok, so disk is ok?

FYI, the thread needs to be moved. It's in the wrong forum.

Same here for each update released post July.

Ah ok thx for replies.

Update: I found a new bug, where this issue happens on day 1 of a clean install on another PC with a Home license!

This happens after just the usual first round of updates! (on my ASRock A320M a/c with Ryzen 5 2600 build)
