General Computer Support / Re: Windows Repair 2.7.5 keeps running and running

« on: June 26, 2014, 12:28:06 pm »

There was never an indication as to what repair it was stuck on. The screen was showing the list of repairs that were checked and there was cpu, ram and disk activity. There was nothing showing in the logs other than the ckdsk logs. I was never able to determine where it was in the process. I looked at the task manager and process monitor but it didn't show me anything other than what was indicated in the Windows Repair status indicators. When I stopped it and checked to see if the system was still functional, my e-mail files (Outlook) were gone. At that point I restored the disc from a clone backup and did not try anything else. After being up and down all night checking on it, I wasn't in the mood to try anything else. I only need to find out why I can't get into Internet Options in the control panel and in Internet Explorer. I apologize for not getting a screen capture, but just didn't think about it. I don't plan on running it again. Can you suggest something else to address the Internet Options problems?
Thanks

There was never an indication as to where in the process the program was. (logs, etc.) I finally just stopped it and restored the disc that it was running on. I am trying to reset to the point that I can get to the Internet Options in the Control Panel and in Internet Explorer 11. I am not sure if Windows Repair is the answer, anyway. I did not realize that I would loose all of my e-mails, etc. I think I will try another approach. Do you have any suggestions. By the way, Windows Repair was running on Windows 7, 64 bit, 16 Gb Ram, 3.4 Ghz Quad core. I don't think processor speed was a problem. Any suggestions as to the Internet Options problem will be welcome.

I started Windows Repair about 15 hours ago and I can't stop it. I unselected all and it won't stop. The system is a dual boot (Win 7 and xp) on a 2 TB hybrid drive, I originally ran it because I can't get into Internet Options in control panel or IE 11. How do I get out of it without damaging something? (Win 7 is the primary op sys that is running now)  Help ASAP
