Reasons for the “rstrui.exe not working” error

The most common reason for this error is related to a corrupt or missing “rstrui.exe” system file.

Alternatively, your file system may have been defeated and is inoperative. System crashes, virus attacks, malware, electrical problems, etc. also can cause this.

The reasons, as you can see, are not entirely simple and require urgent and concrete corrective measures.

Method 1. Use antivirus software

Since viruses do not even spare system files, checking the disk for viruses, worms and malware is a top priority task.

You can run a Windows Defender scan on Windows 10, or you can use a third-party antivirus application if one is already installed. After scanning, it is best to restart your computer and then check if the “rstrui.exe application error” is gone.

Method 3. Use Safe Mode

Safe Mode will help you enter the System Restore utility without errors.

Also, start booting your computer and press F8 to open the Boot Options menu. Here, select Safe Mode using the command line.

Next enter or paste the command:

Then click on Enter.

Method 4. Use a clean installation

Again, all recoverable data from the disk where Windows will be reinstalled will be deleted.

Therefore, use DiskInternals Partition Recovery first. The application recovers all possible files, as the scan takes place on each disk partition separately. The disk imaging function is also useful in this situation: it is free, and you will receive a disk image that you can activate at any time and get a system with all your configurations and data on another device. A reliable and understandable Recovery Wizard will guide you through all the details and stages of recovery. This application is devoid of flaws and has established itself over the past 15 years as the best professional data recovery application.

After backing up your data or creating a disk image using Partition Recovery, you can start with a clean installation of Windows 10. And now you should not be afraid of losing all your accumulated data; it is already safe.
