Your power plan information isn't available. The RPC server is unavailable.

"Your power plan information isn't available. The RPC server is unavailable."
That is what I get when I go into Windows 8 "Power Settings". No Power option is available, only this little message with a white cross inside a red circle.
There is no way I can fix this, I tried everything related to either message but nothing makes it.
This precise error message (combination of "power plan info not available AND rpc server stuff) is nowhere to be found on google.
Of course the Windows Repair 1.9.13 didn't work either.
Anyone ?

Got it working finally. I went there http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/9413-services-restore-default-services-windows-8-a.html and downloaded a REG file for resetting the "Power" key in HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services.
Shane:
OK so you just needed the power service back ont he system :-) I will get that added to the Windows repair :wink:

Yes but I took some time to figure that out, the "RPC" allusion can lure you into thinking it might come from somewhere else.
Also, it would be nice to add a repair for the Windows Search. For information I had a "error 1053" / -2147218173 error code, and even Microsoft Fix-It would do nothing. I solved it in a strange way : I went there HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Search and I set SetupCompletedSuccessfully from 1 to 0. Unfortunately it generated a BSOD (btw hate that smiley on Windows 8 bsod, it's like Microsoft is laughing at you !) . I needed to boot into Safe Mode in order to revert the registry change, but the problem was gone. Windows... :sarcastic:
By the way, sorry for posting at the wrong place, I really tried hard to find the good section though, I had in mind to "help you improve the program" (as is written inside the program), that's why i chose the "request" section :tongue:
Shane:
No problem on where you posted. Anything there is a bug or request I just move it to the right spot :-)
One thing I am thinking of doing is going through and finding all the default services that are the same for every machine on each version of windows and adding them to the repair. Had I of done this a while ago my repair tool would have fixed you the first time :wink:
The only services and reg keys I cant add are the ones that are different on each machine.
