Nothing really worked for a long time. When I had given up, I inserted the W10 rescue disk once more and read a book. After about 30 minutes (!!!)it suddenly reacted, and from then on everything worked just fine. I reinstalled and updated. All my files were preserved. I only have to install my programs, which, however, is rather time consuming.

I am halfway through now and all my backed up passwords, mail and favourites are in place. Life looks good.

A lesson learned: Be very patient, when you have a rescue disc! - nothing may happen for a long time!

In fact I have Easeus partition Master, however I can't make that .exe file work.

It is pure luck that my Thunderbird works as well as Edge. Otherwise I couldn't have bothered you with all my problems.

When I have finished copying my files, I will try reinstall again one way or the other. In any case I will have to reinstall my programs, which is OK, because I have for a long time wanted to clean up and delete some programs.

Will keep you posted.

I am sorry, I don't understand. If I format the C:, how can Windows or part of it remain in order that I can install it? How does self activate function?

For some odd reason, my C: is a dynamic drive, which in many ways is unpractical. When formatting, is it possible to change it to a "normal" drive? If so, how?

As we say in Denmark(not very optimistic!) "a mishap seldom comes alone!
Well, it became rather expensive at the dentist http://www.tweaking.com/forums/Smileys/smillhey/undecided.png
Concerning Windows. i tried once more to reinstall. Everything went fine, it came up to 100%, it started with the (boot) menu as usual, but that's where it went wrong, as the rest never came up. Maybe I should try once more and close my Bullguard security in the meantime.
I am in the process of copying my files. I cannot back them up with my backup programme because of the damn .exe-files not working.
When and if I choose to install Windows without my files, I wonder if Windows format my C:. I have scanned the pc again today for viruses and malware, but I am afraid some harmful waste could remain on the drive.
The service message from MS was like this (my translation): Correct your MS account to apps on other units in order to start apps and continue your experiences on this PC.    It means nothing to me. When I log on my MS acccount the only thing I can see is that MS want me to syncronize with possible other units such as Xbox, phones etc.. However, I get suspicious, when I am having problems with apps and their .exe files.
well, a long song from me. Don't get bored too much. Brgds

Next chapter in a (never ending?) story.
Well I finally got in. I started reinstallation of Windows 10 with the option of keeping my private files. The pc started working, and working and working. The little wheel kept turning and turning, - untill after 20 hours I stopped it this morning. Message: roll back changes. And that is what it did. Now it works, like it did before, i.e. with all the same problems, howver, I got a service message from MS saying in my translation:"Please change your MS account in order to allow other apps to start on this unit".
Well, this was new and I logged into my MS account in order to change this, however I could not find anything which led to places where I could change anything of this kind.
Have to leave now for my dentist.

I am a bit tired of the situation. I decided to reinstall W10 and keep my files. But then I was told, I could only do this if I was logged in as admin. I am the only user and when I look in Windows it confirms that I am admin. Well, even if I had logged in with my MS-account, nevertheless then I had to give my password, which I did, - however it was doomed wrong. It is THE password which I have in my password file. So here we are, - I can't re-install bloody Windows. ... and there is no human being to get hold of in MS, why I don't know where to get help. A hacker maybe?- joke, unfortunately I don't know any.

Well, I can't restore my C: backup (those damn .exe files not working)

Unless you can produce som miracle cure, I think I will bite the rug and reinstall the Windows 10 and start reinstalling my other programs again.
It is just  rather timeconsuming, to say the least.

Brgds and thanks for your kind assistance.

When I did that I got the following message (in my translation): Exe.reg cannot be imported. Said file is not a registry database script. You can only import "binare" (?)registry database files from registry editor, -- i.e. as I understand it only in 0's or 1's.

Back to the good old drawing table again!

Well, - I think W10 was updated during december16. I have 1607 now.
Also I don't know whether my backup will restore my C:. I guess this will require an .exe file too. We will see tomorrow.

Thanks, I will try that next week. I hope the exe files will work. I have the backup on an external HDD.
Will advise you of the results. Brgds, - and thanks a lot for all your prompt answers.

When I got to repair the fun stopped. It said something about lack of files in order to perform a repair.
I have tried to start the PC in fail/safe condition.It made no difference, while standarddrivers and standardsetup apparently was ok.
I guess I have to reinstall Windows 10 (without deleting my files). If I do that, where should I tick a box in order to avoid this mess, where I don't have a build from where I can start again? When I try to start from a build, Windows says (in my translation): You cannot use this option because control of user account is set to always inform you  of changes to your system.
I have a backup of my C: partition from sep16, i.e. as far as I remember before my troubles began. If I restore my C: with the backup, do you think it will work
without problems? I mean does it "repair" the registry-problems?

I have the license for windows 10 home. Could I download an installation from MS and install? Is it possible to cancel the Window files on my PC and reinstall Windows 10?
When I installed Windows 10 (upgrade from Windows 7) I made a rescue-disc with and ISO-file. Do you think I can load that, - and how do such a thing work?
Does it work like a normal Windows installation?

I cannot run the .exe file as there is no association. I have tried Windows Store, but it cannot be found there.

Have downloaded it but cannot start the .exe file as my pc has no file association for that program. Only for programs already installed, it seems.
So it's a catch 22 situation.

When I do this I get a message saying (my translation from danish): "This file has no association in order to carry out the action. Install a program or if you have a program then make an association under standard programs."

The problem is, I don't know which program to associate with, and as previously mentioned, this goes for new and downloaded .exe files as well.

It is not booting. When I say yes to boot and push the button, the Tweaking window closes, and that is it. Nothing more happens.
I am not able to boot manually into safe mode. I am not able to find an earlier build, as my windows 10 says: "I cannot use this function because control of user account is set to always advise me of changes to the system". I don't know whether or where I can change this setting.

Another thing which has come up lately, is that I cannot run an .exe file, without having the program on my PC. I must look into my apps or call at the windows store, in order to find one that matches my download, which of course I not always can't. Pretty silly.

All in all: My Windows 10 is rotten!

Looking forward to your good advice. Brgds

Hi,

May be I was not clear enough: When Tweaking" ask me to start in safe condition with networking, I agree, and the program asks whether I want to do it now. When I agree, and push the button, Tweaking disappears from the screen, however the PC does nada, no restart, no nothing.

If I reboot myself manually, all the programs are reloaded as usual, but that is probably not what you want?

When I ask for back up, nothing happens. When I go to Repair, it starts, but after 3 tries, it ask me to start in safe condition.

Have gone through your items in Windows repair, - however repair won't start. Question: When choosing the item "start in safe mode", should it close down and restart from that menu? It does not and when I restart the PC manually I get into the same mode, which is why I guess the repair does not start. What can I do to get past this point? Brgds
