Windows repair does not run in Safe Mode

(1/2) > >>

TelKen:
Cannot get WR to run in Safe Mode get message about 'corrupt image' or similar.
I need to repair Hosts File and thought WR would do that, but will not load and run.
Runs no problem in normal mode.

Windows 7 64-bit. Home Premium.

Can you please advise?

Thanks in advance.

Boggin:
There's a Win 7 MS Fixit button in this article that will reset the Hosts file for you.

I'll leave the Safe Mode problem to Shane or Julian.

TelKen:
Thanks Boggin. I decided to try Tweaking Repair without going into Safe Mode, selected the repair for Hosts, and it worked. A.O.K.
Still TR not working in Safe Mode though. But PC OK at present.

Thanks again for your kind intention.

Shane:
Very odd my program couldn't run in safe mode, did you get a screen shot of the error by any chance, or can you if you didnt?

The fact that it ran in normal mode tells me there might have been a 3rd party program or driver still loaded in safe mode and wouldnt let it run.

TelKen:
Hi Shane as I managed to get Hosts File sorted I didn't bother you again. But as you now ask here is the message I receive when trying to run Windows Repair in Safe Mode.

Sorry seems I have forgotten how to up load screen print.

The message says,"Invalid Picture"
