Q: Has there ever been a discussion on rating comments and answers?

I find it distracting to read through comments and search for answers and to find people being sarcastic or refusing to address the question as answered. I think there should be ratings on comments, since at times they detract from making useful input. It makes this space more like f***book than...

Xbox One is subject to servicing stack errors

The last value in an Xbox One system error code, and many other error codes in the console, is an HRESULT code, which attests to the similarity of the Xbox software to desktop Windows.

It also makes deciphering error codes that much easier, given online tools like hresult.info...

(though Xbox has a whole bunch of HRESULT codes that are completely undocumented)

---------------------------
Crash Reporter
---------------------------
The application had a problem and crashed.

Unfortunately, the crash reporter is unable to submit a report for this crash.

Details: Couldn't read the application data file.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

(e.g. an Xbox error code that contains 8007045D typically points to a bad hard drive, which likely means the console needs to be serviced; HRESULT 0x8007045D means "The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error.")

Also, Xbox One E200 errors are Windows bugchecks (Stop errors). The first parameter is the bugcheck code.

If Google Maps stops letting you navigate to (Clay County District) A in West Virginia, you can try Jump, OH -> Ina, IL -> Big Hole, TX.

@Biswapriyo Hmm. I wasn't aware of this. Independently of this news I uninstalled Avast a few days ago as it was starting to consume between 700MB and 1GB in it's system service ... my machine has been much faster since. At the moment I'm running with no AV ... I tried Kaspersky but it kept crashing so binned that as well ...
