When working with the Windows operating systemusers may encounter error 1068. This is due to the start of one of the processes, in which parameters autorun is not registered, and it does not start at boot time. Often, when you try to turn on the sound, open a shared Internet connection, or create a homegroup, the user sees the following message on their device's screen: "Error 1068: Can not start a child service or group". If there is such a problem, do not panic, because there are ways to solve it.
First of all, you need to run the utility"Services". To do this, right-click on the "My Computer" icon and select the "Manage" menu item. After that, in the left part of the window find the item "Services and applications" and double-click on the "Services" item.
Alternatively, open the Run utility with the Win + R shortcut, type services.msc in the field, and press Enter.
In the right part of the "Services" window is a listAll operating system applications of the operating system, which can be sorted by name. Here you need to find the "Telephony" service, use the context menu to go into properties where you need to assign it a manual start in the corresponding section, apply the changes made and run it for execution. Then perform similar actions on:
- "Support for Plug and Play Plug and Play devices".
- "SSTP Service".
- "Remote access automatic dispatcher".
After the startup, make sure that all the services that are just running are running. Error 1068 should disappear. If not, you can use the following methods.
To check the levels of access to system foldersyou need to go to the root of the disk with the operating system installed, find the Windows folder in it and, using the context menu, open its properties. By opening the "Groups and Users" section of the "Security" tab, you should make sure that all three owner groups have full access rights. This can be seen in the lower right column, selecting one of the groups above.
After seeing a missing full groupaccess, it is necessary for it to provide it, having noted the corresponding item in the section of changes and applying the new settings. In order for the system to accept changes, after the access is granted, it is necessary to reboot the PC. If error 1068 ("unable to start a child service") is still present, you should try to fix it with the third method.
Sometimes error 1068 may occur because of the service"Windows Event Collector". If a failure occurs in its operation, then the collected information ceases to be recorded in the Logfiles folder. To test its functionality, you must start Windows in safe mode. To do this, during the boot process, before the logo appears, press the F8 button on the keyboard and select the appropriate item.
After the OS starts, you need to find the folderLogfiles on the path C: WindowsSystem32, rename it or move it to another location, and then restart the PC in normal mode. Error 1068 ("can not start a child service") should no longer appear. However, if this method did not work, then there is one more.
Although this method does not always help to cope witherror 1068, you can try it all the same. It is necessary to start the System Restore utility by using the search from the Start menu or by opening it from the system settings and selecting a restore point where the error did not appear. After the system completes the rollback, the computer will reboot.
After all, when the computer issues:"Error 1068: Can not start a child service or group" - you can use the Microsoft firmware Fix it to fix it, following the instructions it offers. If none of the ways to eliminate the error has led to success, the cardinal method - reinstalling the operating system - can help.
