    I will follow your link for posting the contents. As for working through the trouble shooting steps. Please supply the number of the step you think will help me. I saw nothing that applies, but I could need glasses.

    Thanks for helping me, I really appreciate the time and trouble you're going through.

    More or less steps 1,3,7,4,9

    have you tried running it in safe mode? Boot into safe mode by tapping F8 during boot and selecting safe mode. Hit Win key+R, type rstrui.

    If that even doesn't work, boot to normal mode and do a full scan with Malwarebytes.

    I have sfc details.text on my desktop, but when I opened it, there was no text to be seen.

    I thought I had mentioned before that that when I went into Safe Mode, I couldn't see System Restore.

    Could you do me a big favor and list all the things you want me to try (as a numbered list). Try it to view & use them from posts is difficult, there are so many. Then I can answer them one by one. I'm getting frustrated, I've tried so many things and I'm not sure if I've posted all of them.

    I sure would appreciate it you would send it to: EMAIL ADDRESS REMOVED That is my alternate address. :)

    I suggest you remove your personal email address or you might get a lot of unwanted spam.

    Our help is for public consumption so that others learn too, often years after via Google searches. Please work through the steps given in order from the beginning of the thread, asking back any questions you have.

    Do not skip any steps as we often find out later the skipped step was the fix.

    Once you are caught up on the steps given then we will have more steps.

    When I suggested working through Troubleshooting Steps for Windows 7 I meant all of the steps. There is no substitute for thoroughness in a case like this, unless you want to skip forward to run a Repair Install as a last resort before Clean Reinstalling - Factory OEM Windows 7. These are where the Troubleshooting steps lead anyway.
    I understand perfectly why it's better to post here instead of answering question via email.

    I have printed the How to clean reinstall a factory OEM Windows 7. If I find some things to difficult for me to do, I have a grown son who is a computer tech who will surely help me. I would rather find a tech who will fix this problem by remote control. By chance would you happen to know of one who works in Southern New Jersey?

    I am far from being computer literate, need help like a drowning man needs a life jacket.

    Believe me when I tell you: that is far from being my personal, or default email address. I didn't just arrive on the boat. But to take your advice I will remove if I can.

    A bit of a narky response given it was your interests I had in mind. Some people do inadvertently post a personal email.

    My Dear MJF, I'm so sorry if I sounded out of sorts, but that's not the way I intended it to sound. I was attempting to be humorous and I see I failed miserably. I apologize if I offended you in any way. I hope and pray you will accept my humble apologies.

    That's ok. I worked in NJ for quite a while and should have made an adjustment to my response.
