How to fix KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED Windows 10 error

If you diagnose the error name KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED, then it has the error number 0x0000001E. This BSOD error means that the program in kernel mode generates an exception that the error handler did not detect. This often occurs when a blue screen is displayed, when a user tries to install a program or any of the Windows drivers that were just loaded at startup or shutdown. In addition, an improperly chosen device driver can cause this type of error. There is no single source of this error that can be immediately attributed to the perpetrators of the blue screen of death and thus it is difficult to identify and fix this problem. Keeping track of when and where the stop error occurred can help fix the problem.

The Windows kernel has detected an illegal or unknown processor instruction, usually the result of invalid memory and access violation caused by faulty drivers or hardware devices. The error message often identifies a driver or device. If the error occurred immediately after installing the driver or service, try disabling or deleting recent installations.

1)Corrupted Microsoft Windows Operating System File


Most “.SYS” system files allow internal computer hardware or connected equipment, such as a printer, to interact with third-party programs (such as web browsers, word processors, MSDN Development Platform) and the Windows operating system.

Other SYS files are critical system files called “kernel mode device drivers” that are used to power Windows. Files such as “CONFIG.SYS” contain configuration parameters and determine which device drivers should be loaded by the operating system. Without the CLASSPNP.SYS file, you cannot perform simple tasks, such as printing a document. Any damage to this file may create errors in the form of KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED. Therefore, it is recommended to scan your computer for damage to the CLASSPNP.SYS file.

Run System File Checker or sfc.exe to scan and repair damaged Windows system files. (Complete sfc manual).
Run the command prompt as administrator and set the sfc / scannow command.
