All In One Repair

Shane:
So the modified never changes?

Shane

Oscar:
Hi Shane yes that's right + the others.

I have attached what i ran again (just these only).

Sat on 86500 for about half an hour

This happens most of the time but very very rarely goes through ok.

Thanks again

Shane:
I see my CleanMem mini monitor on your screen shot and it shows the system is almost full on the ram. Not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Next time it happens check the task manager for subinacl.exe

That is the file the program uses to set the permissions. Is it maxed out on cpu when it happens?

Shane

Oscar:
Hi Shane i have attached a screen shot.

The “subinad exe” seems to swap with “system idle process “approximate values, occasionally.
The HKEY Local Machine was running at the time.

Thanks again

Shane:
Well the program isnt locked up, the tool is using CPU. I wonder if ti got stuck in a loop. You may have to skip that repair on that system for now on.

--- Quote ---Important Info on Reset Registry Permissions & Reset File Permissions
Both of these repairs will take a little bit to complete, depending on the speed of the system, the number of files and the number of reg keys. On a few systems it is possible for these repairs to get stuck in an infinite loop and thus never complete. This is because of symbolic links http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_link

Symbolic links are a way for a folder or reg key to point to a different location. On a normal system this isn't a problem. But if a system has a bad link that points back to a parent path then everything it hits in that link it will hit it again and again forever.

Example:
C:\Test\Test1\Test2
Test2 has a symbolic link that points back to C:\Test, and now we are stuck in an infinite loop since the repairs do all sub folders and sub keys and will keep hitting Test2.

If the repairs are running for a insane amount of time then they are most likely stuck in a loop. If that is the case stop the repairs and skip them.
