Half way there... (SOLVED)

<< < (7/7)

Boggin:
I tried the Repair/Upgrade option a couple of times on here just for the hell of it and for the experience and it took ages and to boot, it failed each time at the same spot and then I had to sit and wait while it restored from Windows.old - never did find why that was unless it's because this is an OEM build ?

Hi Shane,

I got myself ready this week-end to spend some long hours in front of my pc to perform the repair.
Decided to do one last thing before that and I am very GLAD I did !  :wink:
I decided to run the Windows repair aio tool one more time, now that the UAC is switched off.
I just thought what the heck. I was asked to get the latest version, which I did (2.8.2).
And run the All-in-one tool for the following tasks :
01, 02, 03, 04, 10.
Rebooted the machine and perform some logins with different types of users.
All, including standard type users logged in without any issue !
I then switched on the UAC after that. Same behaviour ! Alleluia !
I really don't know which part fixed the problem.
Is it the 2.8.2 version ? Can it be that the aio tool went further because the UAC was off ?
But I am glad it is over !  :artist:  :smiley:

Thanks for everything.
Alain

Shane:
It is possible that since the UAC was getting in the way and causing problems that it kept some of the repairs from having the permissions they needed. So when you ran it with it off then the repairs where able to get the permissions they needed and where able to change things.

At least that is what I think happened lol

v2.8.3 was put out today as well. Glad to hear my tool got you fixed :artist:

Alain

Shane:
