Believe me I have some suites control a lot of processes and take over the permissions. Acronis does this as well...Do a clean install like Anak directed you to in his previous post. It will be a lot better..
BitDefender is gone but the problem remains, not surprised really, it might not have been the cause and even if it was, removing it wouldn't necessarily fix it.
I just know I have had problem after problem since installing it, some of those were definitely down to BitD - adding files to the system reserved making it too full to do a system image with Windows backup, for example. I started a thread on that a few days ago.
Just got back, been doing chores...Have caught up on my reading, you guys have been busy!
If you do have anything of value on the HDD try to save it.
If we are getting into permissions, i will have to bow out because I have no access in my 7 Home Premium to the Group Policy Editor.
The only other suggestion I would have would be to start windows with only the bare necessities back in msconfig.
Go to the services tab > Check, Hide all MS Services >Disable whats left >then reboot...
If DPS is running okay now, then it is something in those disabled services that is causing the problem.
The general tab would have selective startup checked along with the Load system services with the Load startup items blued out because you made a selection back on the services tab.
You can also do selective startup with the Startup tab, and launch Windows TroubleShooting from the Tools tab.
Hi again Anak. :)
I have decided to do a fresh install, something aint right and I have other issues with this install anyway. Thanks again for all your help.
