Windows Repair all-in-one issue

<< < (2/3) > >>

WaWa:
I hope to have been a little bit of help.  I'll be happy if it can make your program somewhat better.

Kind regards,

Walter

WaWa:
Shane,

Most people do not know what the default 'Services' should be and therefore they set too many of them to 'Automatic' which slows the system down.   As it is extremely difficult to find advices how they should be set, there is one place where I found perfect instructions: » www.blackviper.com «.

Hope it helps to set them all correct in your Windows Repair programme. 

Still, it is a fantastic little programme!  Congratulations.

The info from that website has been used for WR ("Set Services to Start Default"). But - at least - one of those services mentioned (SharedAccess) is missing from the services that are set by this repair. Must be added in the future. Perhaps more (missing) services need to be added.

@WaWa: Didn't you use that repair ? Because that would have set "Plug and Play" to its default value as well.
Don't you use Tweaking's Registry Backup ? Since the start up state for these services is stored in the registry making a backup every time upon start up with this program would make it extremely easy to restore these services to their previous values. No need to manually tweak the services.

WaWa:
...it's good news that you use the advises from BV's website.   :smiley:
[1] However, it surprises me that DCOM and Plug_and_Play being stopped was the main problem.  Apparently PC_Fresh said that there were five more stopped.
[2] I do not use the program to recover the Register.  I always thought by using this the old settings were all reset.  Using Windows_Repair - I thought - would then been of any help :thinking:.
[3] I am not complaining - on the contrary! - it is just to inform you about my experiences, if they be of any help. :rolleyes:
With kindest regards,
Walter

Don't worry. It's clear you're not complaining. Your posts will help to improve WR.

WR puts a number of things (Services, firewall, Windows Update, etc.) back to their default (!!) state, not to their previous old state. It involves, for over 90%, changes to the registry. That's why Registry Backup (RB) is such a wonderful tool, as well. If something goes wrong with your system (after using e.g. WR) then you can go back to a previous state of the registry with the help of RB.

WR needs to stop & start a number of Services, in order to be able to repair Windows. But that new state could be not to the liking of a user. You can tweak the start up state for a whole range of Services to your own liking with the WR option "Set Services to Default Startup". If e.g you have an AV then you can switch off the MS WinDefend Service.
