Something blocks my repair - it cannot run (Windows Repair v3.3.1)

(1/5) > >>

Dorthejuul:
I am trying to make a Windows repair, but it refuses to run. "The current repair has failed to start 4 times. Something is keeping the repair from runninng.

I have already:
1) Opened PC in safemode
2) Disabled all 3rd party programs (via msconfig)
3) Cut off all power etc. and re-plugged it

What else could be interupting the repair? What did I not do?

Please help  :shy:

Boggin:
Why are you trying to run it and have you run a sfc /scannow to see what that reports ?

Dorthejuul:
I got my own PC fixed this way, and my husbands laptop is EXTREMLY slow even though there's a lot of space free. It is approx 3-4 years old now, and might have several errors in the system?

Have now run sfc /scannow, but the window closes right after having reached 100%. There's no report to view.

By using Windows Repair v3.3.1 I have run Pre Scan and Check Disk and all errors are corrected, but it is still not enough to run the Repair.

What to do?

Willy2:
- (Temporarily) disable the anti virus.
- At which point does Windows Repair fails to run a repair ? Right at the beginning ? What does the log file say ? Perhaps you can try to run other repairs first ?

Julian:
try running in safemode with networking. usually that will stop anything that gets in the way ;)
