Solution for AdsPower Not Opening on Windows 10

If AdsPower cannot be opened normally on a Windows 10 computer (like after clicking the icon, but nothing happens), the most common reason is that the current Windows 10 operating system is missing required system components, causing an abnormal runtime environment for the software.

You can follow the methods below to repair the system components and then try opening AdsPower again.

1. Recommended Repair Solution

First, use the built-in Windows system repair tools to check and repair the operating system.

Steps:

1. Type CMD in the search box at the bottom-left corner of Windows.
2. Find Command Prompt, right-click it, and select Run as administrator.
   
3. In the administrator Command Prompt window, run the following commands one by one:
   DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
sfc /scannow

4. Wait for both commands to complete.
5. Restart your computer.
6. After the restart, open AdsPower again and check whether the issue has been resolved.

2. If AdsPower still cannot be opened after system repair, please follow the steps below to manually repair it

Please open CMD as administrator again, then run:

dir C:\Windows\System32\drivers\null.sys

If the file exists, run:

sc create Null type= kernel start= system binPath= System32\drivers\null.sys

Then enter:

sc query Null

After all commands are completed, restart your computer.

After restarting, run the following commands in order:

echo test > nul
type nul
sc query Null

If the above commands can be executed normally, it means the related system components have been restored. You can then reopen AdsPower and test again.

3. What if the issue still cannot be resolved?

If AdsPower still cannot be opened after following the steps above, we recommend contacting AdsPower Support.
