I went into safe mode with f8 key in Win7 Ult, and tried to do the repair 23, then rebooted and tried to do the jump to safe mode tab with-
in windows repair 4.7 to no avail, so does look for sure it is the cause of the grub 1.99 that I have to go thru to boot up?
Also I done the fix of repairs Friday and now in Win7 Ult all my description of tabs and windows and within any raised windows
is small in font size, so how do I fix this?

I don't think it could have made things smaller than default so perhaps yours wasn't originally set at Default.
I don't have access to my Win 7 laptop at this time, so use these articles to check/change the settings -

You may also be able to revert any settings by opening the repair program and under Backup Tools click on Restore in the Registry Backup box.
Click on Restore Registry then use the dropdown to select the back up and hit Restore Now.
This is one of the reasons why I create a system image before running the program.

You mean by system image as a backup of registry or clone of the whole HDD I have Win7 Ult on?
Ray
Boggin:
I suppose it's sort of a clone of the system while there is a difference between imaging and cloning -

Win 7 has its own Create a system image which you can find through Control Panel/Back up your computer under System and Security.
I use Macrium Reflect Free to create images of my Win 10 laptops and Windows own Create a system image of my Win 7 laptop.
The disadvantage of using Windows system image though is that it overwrites the previous image.

I would always like to keep a image of my HDD offline, not associated with the main HDD, that's why I use hdclone as
a image I presume takes up space on the main HDD?
