my pc gets worse every time I use this program!
« on: January 12, 2016, 09:41:36 pm »
I'm running Windows 8.1 on a Dell pc.
You say to reboot in safe mode with networking. Is that even possible with this program? Your own link opens in safe mode only. And, Window 8.1 and Windows 10 have all the repair programs already built in, so is this program even recommended?
After tweaking...
1. file history gets turned off every time. Why?!
2. Bluetooth stops working and I lose my Logitech Bluetooth keyboard.
3. After a tweak and reboot, I get a window that opens saying installing device. What device?! Windows is always telling me to finish installing a device. The installation never completes, presumably because I'm not installing anything!
4.My apps/charms!!! There's like 20 that I always have to uninstall then reinstall. What a %$#! pain! About a half dozen PAID apps won't reinstall anymore. Another waste of money. :(
5. You find errors, repair them (claim to, anyway) then I run the scan/repair again like you suggest and same errors are found again. Tonight the second scan found MORE ERRORS than it did the first time.
6. Latest tweak just locked up while in safe mode, and I couldn't even close it with Task Manager, I had to power down with everything still open and running.

All I wanted this program to do was take care of that infuriating mscorsvw.exe error popup that occurs about 20 time per day. I still have that issue. I have more issues now thank you, but I have a feeling that if I get a reply to this, it'll be that I didn't follow some forum rule or post in the right location or something. I am not a forum person and really wish you could have provided support from the program (You don't even have a help link) so that I didn't have to join something that I don't want to be a member of, share my email, figure out how to post a question here and now the waiting game.

yes it is possible to reboot into safe mode with networking with windows repair in fact there is a big red button on the bottom of the page next to the logo  :wink:
I just checked the command it runs and it is set for Safemode with networking.
Hmmm let's see you said Windows repair found errors? Can you show me what log you are looking at? If its the pre-scan log go ahead and copy and paste it right here I'll look at it for you and see what you are having issue's with. and your file history issue may be from the services repair because that repair change's all the services to default in fact the default for file history is :sc config fhsvc start= demand" so that means it goes to manual unless something opens it to start. Now anytime a usb get's plugged into a different port windows will reinstall/or look for the driver It's insane in my honest opinion but it does it. now your "logitech bluetooth keyboard" is that ran via a usb? And the driver's are they up to date? if you open devices and printers do you see a yellow exclamation symbol or unknown device? Now this mscorsvw.exe that belong's to .net so can you post a screen shot of that error it's giving. I want to help you resolve the issue's you are having. Repairing a computer can be frustrating I'm here to help you out. so first show me that log you are finding a bunch of errors on. and post it here
Thanks,
Julian

The safe mode button, which I can see perfectly fine, DOES NOT OPEN SAFE MODE WITH NETWORKING on my computer.
I can't send you a log of problems. I will not open this program again. There has been no fixes or improvements from running this program, just the opposite. It was a waste of money, a huge mistake and I now have 11 apps, that I paid for, which will no longer open. Uninstalling and reinstalling them makes no difference.
Please RESPOND:  file history gets turned off every time. Why?!
Bluetooth is not usb. It's Bluetooth: Bluetooth stops working and I lose my Logitech Bluetooth keyboard.
Please RERSPOND: Tweak totally messes up my apps/charms. I want to know how to repair them after running your program. This has cost me money; I pay for my apps (not free) You must be aware of this, a lot of people have complained about this.

In answer to your first question - is this program even recommended -

The answer is Yes - usually by word of mouth because of the success it has had in resolving problems for others and MS techs have been known to run it when hooked up to someone's computer.

Because no two computers are the same regardless of running the same OS, glitches do occur, but I have brought your thread to the attention of Shane, although it may not be until Monday or later that he will be able to get to the forum because of his daily workload.

Just this month I got an error 80244019 where it couldn't check for updates.

I have the paid for version and after just running the Pre-Scan and having it repair Environment Variables and Reparse Points it had found, I was then able to check for updates then download and install them.

How is it a huge waste of money when all the repairs are free? You also didnt post any screen shots showing the errors, my program also doesnt scan for errors, it has a presacn to check a few files and junction points but thats it, otherwise there is no scan for errors in it at all.

The program just calls the boot manager command to boot into safe mode with networking and yes even with the red x in the network icon it is still on the internet, with windows 8 and 10 that icon doesnt get updated, you can see it is online by simply opening your browser and going to any website.

Program doesnt touch file history, program also doesnt touch bluetooth. Never had any other users report any of these problems before.

What version of the program where you using? Can you post a screen shot of the program or anything at all to help?
