Tweaking.com Support & Help / Bug report Windows Repair v3.4.3(latest) SFC /SCANNOW

« on: September 05, 2015, 03:14:23 am »

Hi,

I have just witnessed a fairly hefty bug in the latest Windows repair. I say hefty only because System File Checker is a vital component to Windows (and Tweaking.com All in One Windows Repair as well); However any diligent computer tech will do their own checks to ensure that the error isn't just a type 1 error....put simply rather than accepting that the error "Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service" as being true, I decided to dig a little deeper.

1). the Trusted Installer Service is in fact running
2). Windows modules service is also running
3). Running the command manually directly in command prompt does in fact launch SFC as expected


See the attached screenshot for reference

Tweaking.com Support & Help / Warning: Windows (All In One) Repair causes Windows Time sync failure

« on: February 13, 2015, 06:35:04 am »

Hi guys,

I have been a long time user of Tweaking.com's Windows (All In One) Repair and swear by it to fix 90% of most peoples Windows computer issues. I cannot thank you enough for how happy some of the people are after I have run your tool first and foremost. Myself personally I can attest that specifically the resetting of registry permissions on numerous PCs with various ailments has fixed/cured/repaired them. My first positive experience came when I was unable to get sound drivers from the manufacturers website to install on my own PC, and using your tool fixed this along with several other issues (corrupted file system indexes etc).

More recently using your most recent version of Windows (All In One) Repair though has left many computers completely crippled with Windows Time sync errors after rebooting? 3 out of 3 recent PCs experienced these issues resulting in being unable to sync with time.windows.com as well as au.pool.ntp.org or any other time server? Further to this, the PCs could no longer access the internet displaying SSL errors; This is obviously related directly to Windows Time being out of sync. I was unable to recover these system manually from diagnosis however was able to return the computers to the previous states utilising Windows System Restore. A 4th computer utilising a solid state drive had system restore switched off and failed to restore the backed up registry and as a result required Windows to be reinstalled from the System Image I created the day before.

I found through my investigations of these machines that the issues could be caused by one or several registry related issues? Of interest I noted that the following registry key was no longer present on any of the PCs repaired by the latest Tweaking.com Windows All In One Windows Repair:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\W32Time

Upon importing this key from a known good Windows system of the same version Windows 7 Professional I was still unable to get the time service to sync?

The Windows Time Service listed in Windows Services was actually switched on and remained on even though syncing produced the errors.

Changing the Time Server to a more local location such as au.pool.ntp.org also produced the same errors, where these errors may have occurred in the past syncing to a more local time server usually fixed the problem?

No malware was detected on any of these systems, 2 of the 4 had file system index issues (which is not surprising and has never been an issue before?) the other 2 did not have file system errors nor sfc results.
All computers had their bios batteries changed in a hope of fixing the issues but unable to repair?
All experienced the same "An unspecified error has occurred. Your request cannot be processed at this time. Please try again later."
No amount of fixes, or repairs mentioned on the web was able to repair the issues, Windows Repair install would instantly fail, system restore was borked and restoring the registry did not complete.
This seemed to occur since the previous version of Windows Repair, but not in version 2.10.2 which I have chosen to stick to from here on until a resolution.

I hope the information I have provided will help solve the issues.

Thanks,

James
