    Man, you mess up this computer after we've worked so hard to get it up and running again, ..........(Thats what I'd tell my boyfriend)
    Your kinda taking me out of my comfort zone here.


    The only thing I feel that I would trust here,
    Backup the registry first and create a restore point.

    Windows Repair toolTweaking.com - Windows Repair All-In-One (Portable)

    - Download Windows Repair All-In-One (Portable Version) from here.

    - Extract tweaking.com_windows_repair_aio.zip to your Desktop.

    - Disable all your antivirus and antimalware software - see how to do that here.
    - Right click on and select Run as Administrator (XP users just double click) to start Windows Repair All-In-One.
    (Windows Vista/7/8 users: Accept UAC warning if it is enabled.)

    - A window will appear. Click Step 2.


    - Click the Open Pre-Scan button, then click Start Scan. Wait for Windows Repair to finish scanning.

    - Depending on which error Windows Repair found, click Repair Reparse Point or Repair Environment Variable accordingly. When the button changes to "Done!", click the close button to return to Windows Repair.

    - Go to Step 3, then click Check in the See If Check Disk Is Needed.

    - If Windows Repair stated that errors are found, click Open Check Disk At Next Boot. Choose (/R) Fixes errors on the disk also locate bad sectors and recovers readable information, then click Add To Next Boot. Reboot the computer to let Windows check the disk.


    - Go to Step 4, then click Do It.


    - Go to Step 5. Under System Restore click Create.


    - Go to Repairs and click Open Repairs. Leave all checkmarks as they are, then click Start Repairs.

    Right ! Jules me gal !!!

    Think you've done it! PC hasn't run so well in a long long time. And fingers crossed it has no glitches yet.

    Even allowing me to select Windows mail as my default email program which has never been an option in default Apps before. (Because I'm stubborn and hate change and have been migrating "Windiws mail" from vista to 7 and 10 for years)

    So thanks very much for all your input and perseverance with this (me)

    Love Murdo (Romeo) x

    • Please download DelFix or from Here and save the file to your Desktop.
    • Double-click DelFix.exe to run the programme.
    • Place a checkmark next to the following items:
    • Activate UAC
    • Remove disinfection tools
    • Click the Run button.
    • -- This will remove the specialized tools we used to disinfect your system.
      Any leftover logs, files, folders or tools remaining on your Desktop which were not removed can be deleted manually (right-click the file + delete
      ).
