repair failed to start (SOLVED)

(1/4) > >>

Repair failed to start 4 times.

tweaking_ras.exe in the files folder is used to run repairs under the system account, make sure your antivirus isn't blocking it.

System Event Log has:
Tweaking Run As System 0001 (thru 0004) service failed to start due to the following reason:
The service did not respond to a start or control request in a timely fashion

Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 64 bit
all-in-one repair v3.0.0

started in clean mode
made sure AVG was disabled

Any help would be appreciated.

Shane:
Even with AVG disabled it looks like it still blocked it, did you make sure to run the repairs in safe mode with networking?

Before my original post, I had just done a clean boot.

But, now I've also started in safe mode with networking. I still get the same error.

I noticed you always say safe mode with networking. Is networking required? That's one of the problems I'm trying to fix. Networking is not working on this machine. I was trying to reset the registry entries to see if that might help.

I may completely uninstall AVG and see if that helps at all.

Thanks
Ken

PS
In safe mode, I can't see all of the repair window due to the lower resolution. I made it work, but it was a pain.

Shane:
The safe mode with networking is more for windows 8, all other OS's older than 8 can use just normal safe mode. The reason why is the repair windows 8 component store will download and use windows updates to replace missing files, so you need to be online.

None of the other repairs need internet access, so no worries there :-)

I uninstalled avg.

Turned off all non-Microsoft stuff in msconfig.

Started in safe mode with networking.

I still get the same error.
