Does Windows Repair Kit Perform The Following Fixes
Shane:
Where are you seeing "System Driver Files and Services."?
My tool doesnt do anything with drivers. The only repair for all the services is to reset them back to their default startups. (Very helpful when a virus or a unknowing user disabled some services) :wink:

He's talking about the part on this page about how to "Fix System Driver Files and Services":
http://www.selectrealsecurity.com/fix-internet-connection/
So does this mean that I should advise users who still have problems to follow the advice on that page?
Thanks.
Shane:
Yeah, my program doesnt mess with the drivers.
The Repair Windows Firewall is the only repair that replaces some reg keys for some services. Other than that the set service to default is the other repair.
The one thing that keeps my repair tool from doing even better is the registry.
It doesn't replace much in it at all. And a lot of problems in a system can be caused by reg keys being deleted. Such as a virus deleting reg keys for services.
The reason why I dont have the program replace these is because there are SO many keys. Different for each OS version and a lot of keys are unique to the system itself. It would be like playing with fire having a program mess with your reg keys.
So until I find only the safest keys to replace my program will never be perfect.
But I am hoping to find a safe way to get this added down the road :-)

Please let me know if your program will work well to be able to fix the internet services, as mentioned in this article (in the section about Fix System Driver Files and Services, but below the part for 1. Fix System Drivers) :
http://www.selectrealsecurity.com/fix-internet-connection/
if I have already fixed the system drivers and services as described in this section of my article:
http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/how-fix-malware-infected-computer.htm#How_To_Fix_Remaining_Internet_Problems
I want to know if running your program would be enough to start/repair the services which are not running, or whether I need to use something similar to the .bat files.
Thanks.
Shane:
Yes it does "Reset Windows Network Settings"

Right now it sets the defaults of the startup of each service. But if the service has been deleted by a virus then it wont work. Only the Repair firewall repair replaces a few services. In the files folder with the program you will see "regfiles" there you will see what services the Repair Windows Firewall replaces :wink:
