Hi,

the folder C:\Tweaking.com_Windows_Repair_Logs is empty.
Is there any other way to know what tweaking did ?

and:
I thought to have seen that tweaking created a system repair point. But there is none. How that's possible ?

Thanks in advance,
ftr

The repair tool use bat files to run all the commands, and the bat files only output to the log files if there was any errors.

There is info on each repair in the program and what they do :-)

As for the system restore point, the program, if you had it, will make one and also do a reg backup with my registry backup tool.

90% of the repairs all have to do with the registry, so as long as you got a reg backup you should be fine :-)

Shane,

Thanks for your optimistic answer. :cheesy:
One major error which made me use tweaking was the MS installer service which did not work. So I tried again, after the repair run, but got the same error as before :
Impossible to access Windows Installer. This may occur if the installation program of windows has not been installed.
This is not the only error that has not been corrected: the VSS service does not work either.

So, I guess a second repair run would be helpful but one that produces an output. How can I force an output ?
TIA

Shane:
What repairs did you run? Did you trying running them all?

The first 2 are almost always a must. The reg and file permissions. Because if permissions have been changed or corrupted the other repairs wont do much good since they cant have access and a lot of errors can be permissions related.

Hi Shane,

I currently try to repair a vista and a xp installation, both resulting in errors. This thread is about the vista repair attempt.

Answering your question : I ran all of the procedures, but I wasn't able to create a system backup (which is one of the resasons why I want to repair the vista installation), but I got a registry backup.

Searching the pc again to my surprise I found a folder named Tweaking.com_Windows_Repair_Logs - which is empty and caused me to open that thread - AND I found now a log file in the good log folder of the installation. This is why I thought there was no log file first. Now, here it comes, but the results are different, but not better.

Among others:

Repair MSI (Windows Installer)
   Start (19/08/2013 22:31:58)
   Running Repair Under Current User Account
   Running Repair Under System Account
   Done (19/08/2013 22:32:09)

When I tried to install a program with a MSI installer - just to control the result - the same error as before appeared:
Impossible to access the windows installer. this may happened if the service has not been well installed.
