Windows Repair All in One-Issue with Action Center Notification *SOLVED*
animal:
Hi, so I tried your product, hoping it would give me a little extra "push" for my system. It appears, though, that something went wrong. My action center notification on my task bar continuously pops in and out. This is distracting and annoying as I auto-hide my taskbar, and it drags the bar back down, then up again. Repeat, ad-nauseam. Not only that, but it is telling me that my anti-virus (both Avast! and Windows Defender) is turned off. WD is turned off, but Avast! is not. I'm assuming this is causing the pop up message, but I can't tell as it too quick to read. I've tried using system restore, and NONE of my restore points work any longer. Unfortunately I did not back up my registry. I am running Windows 8.1. Asus K55A (laptop). If you need any more info, I'd be more than happy to provide it, but would be much more happy if I could get this resolved. Thanks for the freeware, and your time. Hope to hear from you soon.

Also, while running the program I ran into an issue with number 4(repairing WMI). The program hung for over an hour, so I killed the task, and restarted the program, unchecked number 4 and let it do it's thing. Hope that helps some. If I can think of anything else I'll be sure to post it.

My sound isn't working either. Neither speakers nor headphones.

Killing the WMI repair is what caused the problems.
You need to run that repair and let it finish as a lot of things depend on WMI, so killing it when it isnt done will cause problems.
If it seems to be hanging for a while grab a screen shot of the cmd.exe window so I can see where it is at that is taking so long.
Once the WMI is repaired, after a extra reboot or so or after your Avast updates itself it will write itself back to the WMI and the action center will stop complaining :-)
Normally the Repair WMI backs up the AV info from it for the action center and then puts it back in, but since you killed it, it wasnt able to do that. but like I said that isnt a problem as the AV will update itself back to it once WMI is repaired properly.
I run the Repair WMI on plenty of Windows 8.1 computers and haven't had it hang up like that before. make sure Avast is disabled when you run it. :wink:

Looks like Avast might be the cause of some of the problems with the repair :wink:
