Computer Obsolete
« on: August 28, 2014, 11:55:19 pm »
I downloaded "All in one Repair" for my Windows 7 OS to install some missing system32 programs that I accidentally deleted. I now have a partitioned X:\ windows\system32 drive\path. it was the sole directory open and available to me because of access restrictions. I have no C:\ drive, all my personal files and folders seems to have vanished, I have no MS programs, no start menu, cannot startup windows, System restore is inoperable and access restricted, I am granted a log on window with a cmd prompt to system32 that has limited options outside its path. It has taken me 2 weeks to gain some control by partitioning a drive from the primary and downloading some apps from a usb to even be able to get internet option. I am at my last resort and completely out of ideas on what to do. I have read page after page of txt's but even when I attempt any possible solution I am met with the wall of access denied. All the dll's, exe's, cab's, ext's, and app's are either missing or configured incorrectly in registry or directory. My computer is a mess and I am at a loss. Please Help!

Here is an audit I copied for reference. I would really appreciate if someone can direct me to resolve this problem. This is a complete audit and am sorry if its long but I wanted to make sure that all information was available. ( I originally had Win 7 as OS but it was altered as was the local disk drive and path, partitions.) What troubles me the most is the access restrictions and the open control and access allowance to my computer from some outside groups with full permission. I feel my control and security stripped off and I am uncomfortable with the issue. I just want my windows programs and if possible my personal files and folders restored back to what it was and to completely close off any outside admin\auth\mgmt with access to my home computer. I don't know what went wrong or what happened between downloading some rescue programs for recovery to what I am left with but I would be grateful for any help to resto
Thank you for all and any considerations to my request.

When the drive path gets messed up in windows it means a LOT of registry keys got changed to point to that new path and as you have seen it creates a world of trouble. I am not even sure a repair install would do the trick. You might have to do a fresh install.

The real trick might be to get the system back to using the drive as C: and not X:

This might help you do that, it is for XP but should work for Vista as well
