Repairing Reparse Points

(1/3) > >>

Hello,

I installed Windows Repair (All In One) 3.0.0 on a Dell laptop with Windows 7 and ran the pre repairs scan.

Attached is a text file produced after the scan. It showed 66 Reparse Points which I don't know how to fix. The program suggested that I fix the problems before going further and post here for help with fixing.

I've attached the file showing the results of the scan.

Your help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi stp59,

Here's what I suggest you do from my very new and limited experience with reparse points.

Using the file of the scan you attached, manually create all the directories  mentioned following "Default Location:".  Try one and rescan to see if the problem for the specific reparse point is cleared.  This should solve your issues. 

Hope this helps.

P.S.: strange that the type of reparse point is never indicated (should be "junction" as I understand it).

i search about the -Junction- and the solution for this problem is very very complicated

my problem is this:

Reparse Point: (Type: JUNCTION) (Name: Dati applicazioni) (Original Path: C:\ProgramData\Dati applicazioni) (Target Path: C:\ProgramData) (Creation Time: 25/10/2014 19:40:01)
Infinite Loop! Points back to a parent folder. I was able to access the original path folder contents, which means it creates an infinite loop.

Files & Folders Searched: 136.216
Reparse Points Found: 71


how can i resolve?

jpm:
It may be because they are old mounted volumes.

Go here:

and scroll down to the section titled, " Work around issues that occur when you try to back up files". 

That will explain how to find the "junctions" and remove them.
