Registry backup
Boggin:
Okay - hope it works.
I've occasionally done a repair install on my other upgraded Win 10 laptop when it didn't seem to be running as it should.

Well here is the latest. I deleted all of the folders under Windowsapps. Next I copied the folders under the WindowsApps from my healthy ASUS Windows Home Premium to the WindowsApps of the sick computer. I am using that one now. I went through a refresh and reboot. When the system came up there were icons under the Apps icon under programs and when I clicked on a number of the ones that I would be interested in using they actually executed.
Afterwards I had done a few things I should not have and had to do a recovery from my last EaseUsToDo image. On the image there were two partitions C and an unnamed partition. As an experiment, instead of doing a recovery, I opted for a System Transfer. At the end of the transfer there is now only the C partition on the PC. Need to check with my computer expert friend coming here today if I really should do a recovery not a transfer so that the unnamed partition is on the boot hard drive.
Now running your tweaking program to see if I screwed anything up in the last few days.
Thanks for you help,
Paul

Was that a 450MB recovery partition that you got rid of - Win 10 puts that on.

Yes I think so but I have never had the occasion to use it nor do I know how to use it. Right now only a C partition on the drive. So far windows has not put it back on the drive.
Boggin:
That 450MB partition allows you to go into the recovery environment should you need to repair your system.

I don't know if a repair install will reinstate it but I would advise you to restore with the image which will put it back on.
