Publishers Description
Windows Repair is an all-in-one repair tool to help fix a large majority of known Windows problems including registry errors and file permissions as well as issues with Internet Explorer, Windows Update, Windows Firewall and more.
Malware and installed programs can modify your default settings - with Windows Repair you can restore Windows original settings.
Windows Repair can do the following
Trying to fix a system that is currently infected is obviously a very bad idea and can make things worse. An infection can hijack a machine and keep part of the repairs from running correctly. Since only part of a repair will work the other part that failed could end up causing problems. Rule of thumb before working on a system is to make sure it is clean. Even if you think your system is clean doing a scan before hand is a good idea.
Step 2. Check File System
Doing a check disk on the hard drive is a good idea. This will have Windows check the file system on the drive fixing any problem it finds. Corrupt files can break a lot of things, including the repairs. So making sure the file system is good is a must.
Step 3. System File Check (SFC)
The built in Windows system file checker is a tool that checks that the Windows files are intact, the correct versions and not corrupted. This is a good idea to do before doing repairs as if a file is corrupt and we try a repair that needs that file then the repair will fail.
Step 4. System Restore
Doing a system restore point is a great idea to do before doing any repairs. If any unforeseen problems happen after any repair than a system restore can put the system back to the way it was before the repairs. This is highly recommended.

In this final step you can choose between 3 modes.

What's New in Version 1.9.11 (See full changelog)
- Improved 'Repair Windows Update'. On a very few machines the repair was unable to rename the pending.xml file. On vista and 7 this would cause the 'installing update step 3 of 3' screen to never go away at boot up. By simply renaming the pending.xml file fixed this. Even though this was already part of the repair, if the file was in use at the time then it wasn't able to be renamed and the person would get stuck at the next boot. I am changed the repair to now remove any attributes from the file and set a secondary rename option directly in the registry to have windows rename the file at boot up. So now if the repair is unable to rename that file during the repair it will get rename at the next system boot. Hopefully this will now keep the 'installing update step 3 of 3' screen from coming up and getting stuck. I was able to replicate this problem in Windows and the new repair fixed it in my testing.
- Improved the 'Repair Winsock & DNS Cache'. The repair reset TCP which would also clear any static IP info set on the system. Per user request the program will now extract the static IP info, run the repair and then put the static IP info back.

When we last updated Tweaking.com - Windows Repair we scanned it using VirusTotal and checked the developers site was not listed negatively with any of the reputable site advisory sites such as WOT or SiteAdvisor. We pride ourselves on safe downloads from honest and trustworthy developers
Windows Repair (All In One) is the repair utility that not once,or twice,,or three times ,,but four times saved me the time and money of formatting and reinstallig Windows. I have used every phase of this program to flawless capability. Windows Repair (All In One),,has given new life to many old computers,,mine included!!!!
Agree with you Claw, this utility can really save you time when restoring a PC. It has certainly given my wife's PC a new life without resorting to a repair install. In any event I think that a "repair" would have taken longer and left me missing all the MS updates after Sp3 (sorry, about the late info but we are talking about XP in my case). No faults have come to light on either her machine or mine. Nice piece of code from Tweaking.com; I think that this could be safely used by a beginner thanks to the informative prompts at each step. Recommended.....has anyone tried it on Vista or W7?
I used it on W7 once campart, but I didn't need every repair on the final list. But I did use more than half of the list, and again it worked like a charm. She's up and running without a problem. I include this on every computer I touch. And by the way, I also run XP.
Thank you for this program. As an old Win XP user I am verygood at screwing up my setup and loosing files. I think this will be just what i need to get me out of all those self dug holes. Again, Thanks, EB.
