Both files successful to thumbdrive. Also... No go with Recuva app for CleanMgrScripts\Google Chrome Cache 1 (For Each User Profile).dat; other anomalies... Component Services - Sys Application blinking (attached); Sys Properties - If F: drive (external HDD) is off, usually it shows OFF (attached); System does not recognize USB extended storage DVD, and won't read disk in D: drive; and more. Don't remember if I included CBS Log (attached). Bottom line, I think you are right about a reinstall. B4 going back to instructions on your October 25, 2021, 03:35:57 PM post, will I lose all data? This is a fine mess I've gotten myself into.

Just found a disk... GSP1RMCHPXFRER_EN_DVD 3.09 GB from 2011. It opens, but have not run it.
Boggin:
Is that disk what you installed Ultimate with and if so, does it have a product key ?
If it doesn't then this article will describe how to find it in the registry,
https://www.ionos.co.uk/digitalguide/server/configuration/how-to-find-a-windows-7-product-key/
Make a note of it when you find it then close the registry.
Open Windows Explorer and insert the disk.
Go Start - click on Computer then double click the drive for your disk drive - probably D:
This starts a repair install which won't affect installed programs or personal stuff.
At the end you will be prompted for the product key.
Let me know how you get on.
Boggin:
On re-reading your post, did you also copy the USB/DVD burner program onto the USB ?
That should only have the ISO on it otherwise the system won't boot from it.
metaguy:
Both on same thumb drive. Are you saying I should I put them on separate thumb drives?

Not quite clear on last message. Use the Installer to boot to E: drive with Win 7, or use the Win 7 disk?
I have the product key.
