Chinese characters in US Repair Parse Points results.

What's this?

I rebooted and re-ran Tweaking Windows repair and re-ran check reparse points ( and chkDsk, and DISM ), and "Problems Found?: No", but the tab saying [ (Information ) All Found reparse Points On System ] has these Chinese characters shown below ( I included a prior OK line and an OK line after ).

I searched the disk for such characters and found none.

What is this?

Thanks for exploring this and sharing.

4.13.1 of Repair Windows hesitates and appears to fail to enumerate it's files upon loading, compared to 4.12, which enumerates it's files immediately and quickly, moving the progress bar and number count quickly.

On older, slower computers, the hesitation is so severe that 4.13.1 appears to lock up and be totally dysfunctional, so I've been killing 4.13.1, and reverting to v4.12 instead.

Is this startup hesitation something new happening with 4.13.1, an inbuilt programming self-check change, or does this indicate something else with the computer under test needs attention?

I've experienced this mostly with Windows 7 x64 Pro, 2-core computers, HDD, usually 4GB ram ( not newfangled multi-multi-core, SSD equipped, 16+GB ram beasts ).

Any clues?

Thanks for letting us explore this and share.

Google Chrome is blocking Tweaking downloads on 2018-10-29

To remedy, in Google Chrome, start the download and let it finish, then hit [ Ctrl ][ J ] and look at the download list for the blocked download file, and click [ Keep ] and continue to accept that you want to keep it anyway in spite of the warning, then you can open your downloaded file wherever it's been saved to your computer.

That's how to continue to get Tweaking downloads through Google Chrome.

Someone gonna figure this out and come up with a fix?

Tweaking.com Support & Help / > nul in DOS windows wait for [ Enter ] key

> nul in DOS windows wait for [ Enter ] key

I have two modern Windows 8.1 machines ( multicore, 16 GB ram, lots of drive space ), one works repairs smoothly, the DOS boxes either never show up as it progresses, or they show up, run zippy through their stuff, and close -- also will successfully reboot to safe mode for repairs.

The other computer sits at the DOS box and waits, I click in the box, hit [ Enter ], and it moves a step forward, sometimes I have to keep responding to a series of > NUL's, sometimes it finishes on it's own and closes the DOS box, but the next DOS box requires the same babysitting ... through 47 repairs!  Also will not successfully reboot to safe mode so I'm doing repairs in virtual / real mode.

Repeated these symptoms over months with 3.4 through 3.8, same behavior.

Anyone see this before?

What dd you do?

Thanks.
