Missing Network Protocal

<< < (2/3) > >>

Boggin:
It would have been helpful if you had posted that the winsock reset cmd didn't work as a sfc /scannow run from an elevated cmd prompt or what had been recorded in Event Viewer, may have helped with other suggestions that could have negated the need to reinstall and all that entailed.

The program needs to be run within Windows on the affected machine and not as a block repair for a number of machines.

Prior to running the main repairs, a registry back up is done which would be impossible if it had to encompass all of the machines on the network from a single installation of the program.

If the Pre-Scan in Option 2 picked up corrupt Package Files - how would you know which machine they related to.

To show your appreciation for the program, you could purchase one copy and install the free version onto the other machines - this is something I've done for my two laptops.

I don't understand your reply. 

I did purchase Tweaking.com weeks ago, and I am a paid user.  I am not trying to run Tweaking.com on multiple computers, just my computer - in my office.  What happens when I run it on my computer is the other computers on my network report the missing protocols message when they attempt to connect to my computer which is something they have to do.  My computer runs perfectly and blazingly fast after tweaking, and it connects to everybody in the network.  Everybody in the network runs as usual and connects to everybody else in the network except for me. As I said, if they try to access me, they get the missing protocols message.

It's too late for me to post any history, but I would still like to be able to use Tweaking.com.  So, as a paid customer, I am asking if you can kindly provide assistance.  Please! And, . . .
Thank you.

Boggin:
It would seem that I didn't understand your post either.

Missing network protocols usually refers to the winsock which WR resets.

This may have been the cause of the other machines not being able to connect.

You haven't said why you needed to run the Windows Repair program, but prior to running the main repairs, the program auto backs up the registry and which you could have used the restore option of that.

Having this facility as a fall back should allay your fears of a repeat should you need to run the program again.

You also have the option to uncheck any repairs you don't want to effect prior to running them.

EIanetti:
Thanks for your reply.

I am more convinced that the problem lies in the network configuration we have in the office. 

This is because I took Tweaking.com home and ran it on one of my home computers and found no connectivity problems with any of the five we have in the house.  I am going to run it again and be sure to have a System Restore point.  Last time, I tried turning off all tweaks that seemed network related.  But, do you have any tweak in mind that should be turned off so as not to interfere with whatever network setup we have in the office?

I would appreciate that detail.  Thanks again.

Boggin:
Repair #13 deals with Network which you can uncheck, but not sure about 15 which is for Proxies.

While WR auto creates a registry back up, you can click on the Backup tab to select Restore under the registry option and then use the dropdown to select the one you want as it will create a registry back up each time you go to the Repairs option.
