Windows Rt Stability Index Very Low Score

[J515OP]

similar here. good to know how to find the culprits. Mine was Box that constantly caused problems (also in background tasks).
cheers

I had a Box one that was persistent for a few days but seems to have gone away and a backgroundTaskHost which can be just about anything.

most of my backgroundTaskHost problems were listed with Box as source.

Description
The program backgroundTaskHost.exe version 6.2.9200.16384 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Action Center control panel.

So, I did a system refresh, and my index jumped back up to 10, it is just buggy apps that brings your score down. Within a couple of days of using different apps, my score has dropped back down. So, this index is good to see which apps are having some problems, but it doesn't directly relate to how well your surface is running.

This forum is so helpful. I refreshed this week, so mine doesn't have much data. It was high for a few days and now it's sitting pretty at 1. I have to say that mine feels like a one too. Often quite slow and frequent crashing. I can't upload a picture, but I have critical events every day for windows crashing.

Can't seem to post the screen print for some reason but it makes interesting reading and probably should look at some of the logs in more detail. It's odd that it doesn't consider itself stable. It's definitely not crashing or un reliable as the report is suggesting.

I think you missed the couple of posts that it seems to be reporting apps and processes more than its own stability

Think you're right. Just seen - sorry. Been having some major issues with Board Express Pro on the RT recently. Not seeing all the posts and I'm having problems posting. Works fine on my 8x though.

I'm not sure this is entirely true though. Mine averaged around 5 with app crashes every day. It's when there start to be windows failures that it dips down to the ones. Several of these pictures show the same...though admittedly some don't. There must be some formula. Either way I think it's interesting the variability. I think I'm an impatient user, so maybe that's why mine is less stable.

Mines pretty steady at 1. Will have to start digging into some of the problems and see if they get any better.

Interesting information. Zero Windows failures and only one app reporting failures, albeit multiple times.

Mine is -4

In mulitple errors that I see I find this seems to be the culprit:

Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll

That ntdll.dll is not a happy camper. Seems to cause problems multiple places.
How can I fix this?
