Windows Repair - Safe Mode - Windows 7 Partition
« on: August 20, 2015, 12:47:34 pm »
I understand the logic of running Windows Repair/AIO from Safe Mode, and running the repair twice.
But what would be your advice regarding this situation: One of my drives is a partition that is unavailable in Safe Mode due to being a partition exceeding the 2.2TB Windows 7 limit, so it is managed by third-party software on a Windows 7 Pro SP1/64-bit system.
After running all the applicable repairs, twice, from within Safe Mode, would it be reasonable to boot into regular mode, uncheck **all** repairs except (1)Reset File Permissions and (2)Unhide Non-System Files?
These are the two repairs that I believe would be the most helpful since the drive is merely storage/backup.
Thanks ever so much. BTW, I will be donating/becoming a PRO subscriber soon...  :artist:

if you need to run just one repair for a certain problem and you know the problem then yeah it should not hurt to just run one repair.
 just make sure to back up it's a little less important than your heart beat lol  :wink:

Thanks, Julian--I thought it should be okay, but I wanted some decision-making company!
