Loading Variables Get Stuck @76%

(1/8) > >>

oao:
I cannot create restore points in a Windows 7 x64 system and the writers list by vssadmin is empty. I tried all sorts of fixes from online to no avail.

I have installed Tweaking but when I load it the process gets stuck at 76% loading variables.

Pls advise.

Boggin:
Can you try starting it in Safe Mode with Networking.

If that doesn't work, see if setting an exclusion in Windows Firewall does it.

oao:
I am usually reluctant to bother with the safe mode.

I will try the firewall option and let you know. But before I do, what method does Tweaking use to repair VSS? Can you pls give me some details? If it's re-registering the DLLs, or one of the fixes usually suggested, I already tried that to no avail.

Thanks.

oao:
I managed to circumvent the problem by downloading only the VSS repair tool from another site.

As I suspected, it re-registers the DLLs, which does not fix the problem.

Is there any point in posting a detailed description of the problem?

Boggin:
I don't know what method the repair program uses but I can ask - that is Shane's domain as the author of the program.

Since using that other repair tool, are you now able to start the Windows Repair program ?

Safe Mode is a method to eliminate the possibility of any 3rd party programs as the cause of Windows Repair not loading.
