Reply 1 is correct though; if you don’t post relevant logs, any solution given is just a guess. A helpful poster could make an educated guess, and you might get lucky and it’ll help but it also might not and then you’ll have to go to the logs anyways.
That’s the problem with ms answers forum, they rarely care about logs and so many hey simple give 1-3 generic solutions that will solve ~50% of peoples problems. If you’ve taken even a single step off the path of most users their forums will be more often than not be useless.

Here are some paraphrased ones I’ve actually encountered, back when I tried to make Linux work for me as a daily driver
“Any Linux user knows how to do that, or if they don’t, they’re too dumb to use Linux”
“RTFM!”
“Why are you trying to do it that way? You should try doing it this completely other, much more difficult way.”
“Why are you trying to use that application? You should use this one instead.”
“You should reinstall (their preferred distro) and it will work fine”
“You don’t seem to know what you’re doing”
“This book on Linux command line for beginners might help”

To be fair, that shit isn’t restricted to Linux. I was just reading a camping forum where a guy posed the idea of extending a roof box over above the windscreen of his car to fit more stuff, and one of the suggestions was “You should just get more compact, lightweight gear, maybe a smaller tent. Get rid of some of the luxuries. Leave the toaster oven and microwave at home.”
I wanted to reach through the screen and slap that asshole.
