Windows 7: WEI can't run

Britton30 · 28 Dec 2011

I was attempting to re-run my WEI assessment and got the following error.Has anybody seen this before? There has been no changes of any kind since the last run 3 days ago, not even a sofware update.

Delete all the previously run scores found inside C:/Windows/Performance/WinSAT/DataStore folder, reboot and try it again.

Hi Mate,

If possible post the log as well. C:\Windows\Performance\WinSAT\winsat.log

Hello Garry,

As Aaron posted, resetting WEI may help.

Thanks y'all, I did it as Aaron said and it worked. Here is the log Shyam requested.
winsat.log

Hi Britton,

I'm not entirely sure if this will help, but could you try running winsat formal from an elevated command prompt?

Regards,
Golden

Thanks Colin, after I deleted the .xml files in C:/Windows/Performance/WinSAT/DataStore the WEI ran fine.
I did run the winsat /formal too and it also ran fine but is more interesting to see what all the tests are as they run in real-time.

Ahhh...my mistake, I misread your post...I thought WEI was still broken but that you fixed the logfile option...

I'm glad you fixed it.
