    Recdisc.exe crashing for making system repair disc


    I cannot make a system repair disc, either through the control panel or command prompt using recdisc.exe. The app crashes with no error code about 1-2 seconds after choosing the option or issuing the command. I've tried all the things on the web, including: the bcd enum fix; trying it from the hidden admin account; tried uninstalling numerous CD/DVD using programs; uninstalling Dropbox and Google drive apps; tried it while booting into safe mode. It is a Dell pc but the Dell fix on the web didn't apply to me. Maybe try uninstalling all Dell apps? I have the DataSafe local backup from Dell, which I use to make recovery discs. It's icon is running in the system tray, but I couldn't find an entry for it in msconfig/startup. Maybe it's a service? Maybe disabling the service if it's enabled? The only things I haven't tried is uninstalling the Dell apps or services, and using the Win 7 installation disc, which I'd rather not do because it's a workaround and not a fix. I even did a Windows 7 SP1 Home Premium 64 bit repair re-install (upgrade option), which did fix some other things but not the recdisc.exe crashing. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Edit: I did find the Dell DataSafe Online service, which I stopped, tried recdisc.exe, no help, re-started, tried again, no help.

    See here: Trying to create a system repair disc, application stops working

    Found the problem with a further Google search. The installation of BOX SYNC causes this behavior. Uninstall it, and the problem is solved.
    Does this apply to you?

    I uninstalled hubic (cloud sync) and problem disappeared. Thanks for your help.

    Cloud Sync must be like Box Sync. Glad you got it working.

    It's at hubic.com. It's cloud storage. Their syncing app was causing the problem. I posted the problem on their forum so they can investigate.

    Crazy solution


    After days of seaching for an answer to the 80070057 parameter error code thrown by the backup-restore create a system repair disk app accidently I found a solution for my computer.

    I MOVED the "hidden" folder C:\recovery to a flash drive and rebooted. Everything worked fine after that. Somehow the original folder had become corrupted.
