I only part I to recover from a corrupt registry! Help

A couple of weeks, I had a Windows XP didn't start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM.  I did a restore using the following
First part
In the first part, you start the Recovery Console, create a temporary folder, back up the existing registry files to a new location, delete the registry from their existing location files and then copy the registry files in the repair folder to the System32\Config folder. When you have completed this procedure, a registry is created that you can use to start Windows XP. This registry was created and saved during the initial setup of Windows XP. Therefore, any changes and settings that took place after Setup has finished are lost.

The full, first part, follow these steps:

  1. Insert the diskette of starting Windows XP in the floppy drive, or insert the Windows XP CD into the CD-ROM drive and restart the computer.
    Click to select all of the options required to start the computer from the CD-ROM drive if you are prompted to do so.
  2. When the "Welcome" screen appears, press R to start the Recovery Console.
  3. If you have a dual-boot or multiboot, select the installation that you want to access from the Recovery Console.
  4. When you are prompted to do so, type the administrator password. If the administrator password is blank, just press ENTER.
  5. At the Recovery Console prompt, type the following lines, pressing ENTER after you type each line:
    MD tmp
    copy c:\windows\system32\config\system c:\windows\tmp\system.bak
    copy c:\windows\system32\config\software c:\windows\tmp\software.bak
    Copy c:\windows\system32\config\sam c:\windows\tmp\sam.bak
    copy c:\windows\system32\config\security c:\windows\tmp\security.bak
    copy c:\windows\system32\config\default c:\windows\tmp\default.bak

    delete c:\windows\system32\config\system
    delete c:\windows\system32\config\software
    Delete c:\windows\system32\config\sam
    delete c:\windows\system32\config\security
    Delete c:\windows\system32\config\default

    Copy c:\windows\repair\system c:\windows\system32\config\system
    copy c:\windows\repair\software c:\windows\system32\config\software
    copy c:\windows\repair\sam c:\windows\system32\config\sam
    Copy c:\windows\repair\security c:\windows\system32\config\security
    Copy c:\windows\repair\default c:\windows\system32\config\default

  6. Type exit to quit the Recovery Console. Your computer will restart.

Note This procedure assumes that Windows XP is installed in the C:\Windows folder. Make sure that replace C:\Windows with the appropriate dossier_Windows if it is a different place.

If you have access to another computer, to save time, you can copy the text in step 5, and then create a text file called "Regcopy1.txt" (for example). To use this file, run the following command when you start in Recovery Console:

batch regcopy1.txt

With the command batch to the Recovery Console, you can process all the commands in a text file in the order. When you use the batch command, you do not have to manually type as many commands. Second part to perform the procedure described in this section, you must be logged on as an administrator or an administrative user (a user who has an account in the Administrators group). If you use Windows XP Home Edition, you can connect as an administrative user. If you sign in as an administrator, you must first start Windows XP Home Edition in safe mode. To start the computer in Windows XP Home Edition in safe mode, follow these steps.

Note Print these instructions before continuing. You cannot view these instructions after you restart the computer in Mode safe. If you use the NTFS file system, also print the instructions from article KB309531 of the Knowledge Base. Step 7 contains a reference to the article.

  1. Click Start, click shut down (or click turn off computer), click restart, and then click OK (or click restart).
  2. Press the F8 key.

    On a computer that is configured to start to multiple operating systems, you can press F8 when you see the boot menu.

  3. Use the arrow keys to select the appropriate safe mode option and press ENTER.
  4. If you have a dual-boot or multiboot system, use the arrow keys to select the installation that you want to access, and then press ENTER.

In part two, you copy the registry of their location saved files by using the system restore. This folder is not available in the Recovery Console, and is usually not visible on the typical use. Before you begin this procedure, you must change several settings to make the folder visible:

  1. Start Windows Explorer.
  2. On the Tools menu, click folder options.
  3. Click the view tab.
  4. Under hidden files and folders, select Show hidden folders and files, and then click to clear the Hide protected (recommended) operating system files check box.
  5. When appears in the dialog box confirming that you want to display these files, click Yes .
  6. Double-click the drive where you installed Windows XP to display the list of folders. If it is important to click on the correct drive.
  7. Open the System Volume Information folder. This folder is not available and is dimmed because it is defined as a file hidden doubling.

    Note This folder contains one or more _restore {GUID} folders such as "_restore {87BD3667-3246-476B-923F-F86E30B3E7F8}.

    Note You may receive the following error message:

    C:\System Volume Information is not accessible. Access is denied.

    If you receive this message, see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base for access to this folder and continue with the procedure:

309531 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/309531/) how to access the System Volume Information folder
  • Open a folder that was created not at the present time. You may need to click Details on the view menu to see when these folders were created. There may be one or more folders starting with "RPx under this folder. Here are the restore points.
  • Open one of these folders to find a subfolder of the snapshot. The following path is an example of a folder path to the snapshot folder:
    C:\System Volume \RP1\Snapshot Information\_restore {D86480E3-73EF-47BC-A0EB-A81BE6EE3ED8}
  • Starting from the Snapshot folder, copy the following files to the C:\Windows\Tmp folder:
    • _REGISTRY_USER_. DEFAULT
    • _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SECURITY
    • _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SOFTWARE
    • _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SYSTEM
    • _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SAM
  • Rename the files in the C:\Windows\Tmp folder as follows:
    • Rename _REGISTRY_USER_. DEFAULT DEFAULT
    • Rename _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SECURITY to SECURITY
    • Rename _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SOFTWARE to SOFTWARE
    • Rename _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SYSTEM to SYSTEM
    • Rename _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SAM to SAM
  • These files are the system restore registry files. Because you used the registry file that the Setup program created, this registry does not know that these restore points exist and are available. A new folder is created with a new GUID under System Volume Information and a restore point is created that includes a copy of the registry files that were copied during the first part. Therefore, it is important not to use the most recent folder, especially if the time stamp on the folder is the same at the moment.

    The current configuration of the system is not aware of the previous restore points. You must have a previous copy of the registry to a previous restore point to make previous restore available again points.

    The registry files that were copied to the Tmp folder in the C:\Windows folder are moved to ensure the files are available in the Recovery Console. You use these files to replace the registry files currently in the C:\Windows\System32\Config folder. By default, the Recovery Console has limited access to records and cannot copy the files in the File System Volume.

    Note The procedure described in this section assume you are using your computer with the FAT32 file system. For more information on how to access the folder of information system with the NTFS file system Volume, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

    309531 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/309531/) how to access the System Volume Information folder

    Part three in the third part, you delete the existing registry files, and then copy the system restore registry files to the C:\Windows\System32\Config folder:

    1. Start the Recovery Console.
    2. At the command prompt, type the following lines, pressing ENTER after you type each line:
      del c:\windows\system32\config\sam

      del c:\windows\system32\config\security

      del c:\windows\system32\config\software

      del c:\windows\system32\config\default

      del c:\windows\system32\config\system

      copy c:\windows\tmp\software c:\windows\system32\config\software

      copy c:\windows\tmp\system c:\windows\system32\config\system

      copy c:\windows\tmp\sam c:\windows\system32\config\sam

      Copy c:\windows\tmp\security c:\windows\system32\config\security

      Copy c:\windows\tmp\default c:\windows\system32\config\default

      Note Some of these command lines may be wrapped for readability.

    3. Type exit to quit the Recovery Console. Restart the computer.

    Note This procedure assumes that Windows XP is installed in the C:\Windows folder. Make sure that replace C:\Windows with the appropriate dossier_Windows if it is a different place.

    If you have access to another computer, to save time, you can copy the text in step 2, and then create a text file named "Regcopy2.txt" (for example). To use this file, run the following command when you start in Recovery Console:

    regcopy2.txt batch

    Fourth part

    1. Click Startand then click all programs.
    2. Click on Accessories, then System Tools.
    3. Click System Restore, and then click restore to a previous RestorePoint.

    But after the game, I, my system was up and so I didn't do parts 2 3 & 4.  The other day I got the same error message when I started so I thought that no problem I'll try that again.  Except when I get to the part in part I say type md tmp go, I get the message that this file already exists.  Can some help me with this you problem, I have tons of photos and music that I need to register!  I had windows xp professional with all service packs.

    rgmcmanus,
    If the tmp folder already exists then you can either remove and then recreate with the command "rd tmp" or you can just create a different name like tmp1.  If you keep the registry errors you may need to back up all your data and then do a clean install.

    • How can I recover from a corrupted registry that prevents the start of Windows XP OEM version?

      Turned on my Dell PC today to find wonderful "Windows XP could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM"message. "  I have a Dell 8400 which had pre-installed XP Prof. when I bought it.  I found the MS page that deals with the issue of the file, but they cite... "Do not use the procedure that is described in this article if your computer has an OEM operating system installed." http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307545 ... but gave no alternative instructions if you do.  ????

      How someone does solve this problem if they have an OEM operating system and do not want delete or lose the data they had on the hard drive?

      I tried to go in safe mode to see if I could get a restore, but failed to go beyond the Dell BIOS screen.
      I tried Dell support does site... no help.  Just a page to list the errors and buttons for your favorite web search gee thanxs engines.

      Help!

      You can always make use of KB307545, if you start your computer from a CD with a system.  I find that free Linux Livecd such as Knoppix or Ubuntu works well for this purpose (if you use Ubuntu, make sure you have not install; instead of this, use the option "Try Me").  You download an .iso file and use the "Burn Image" of your burning program CD to create a CD bootable on another machine and then use this system to perform the steps of KB307545.  Linux has the advantage of protections on the folder "System Volume Information" don't get in the way and where you need to back up your system (before reinstalling Windows), it doesn't have the path of 256 byte limit that has Windows.

      After booting from the Live CD of Linux, start KB307545 of part 2, step 6.  You will use Linux to move, copy and delete files instead of command line commands, but you should be able to find a way to do it.  You won't have to restart between part 2 and part 3, but you need to remove the CD and reboot after completing part 3.  Make sure you complete part 4.

      If things are really bad, you can use the Live CD as a system for access to your files and back up an external hard drive, USB or network before you reinstall Windows.

    • Re how to recover from A corrupted or deleted TLOG (Doc ID 764603.1)

      What/where is the table of tran $ xa mentioned in this doc, and how is it used? (The scenario that I think is where the request has failed but the TLOG was not shared / mirror and a manual recovery of uncertain transactions is necessary.) The RMs would be MQ 7.0.1 and DBMS Oracle 11 g 2).

      Thanks for any help.

      Hello

      I do not have the document you speak so I can't say with certainty what it is, but from the name, it sounds like a table of Oracle database or notices related to XA transactions.  Smoking does not use a table or a view of the same name.

      To understand what is happening if the Tuxedo transaction log is 'lost', let us look at the State of transactions:

      • Before calling tpcommit(), nothing in the Tuxedo transaction log.  There may be in the RMs application interacts with pending transactions, but none of them will be established.  If a failure will leave at this stage these transactions suspended until they have time because during the restart of Tuxedo he calls xa_recover(), but he won't be in the RMs uncertain transactions because they have not been prepared.
      • After the application calls tpcommit() before RMs all respond positively to the xa_prepare(), yet once there will be nothing in the Tuxedo transaction log, so a failure of Tuxedo at this stage is the same as above.
      • Once all of the RM responded positively to xa_prepare(), then and only then will Tuxedo create a transaction log entry.  At this point if Tuxedo fails, it will read the transaction log rebuild the table of partially committed transactions and then call xa_recover() on the RMs.  For all RMs report transactions that are not in the list of partially committed transactions, Tuxedo will call xa_rollback().  If the transactions reported by the RMs appear in the list, then Tuxedo will call xa_commit().  If we delete the transaction log could not be read, etc., there will be no entries in the partially committed operations, so all transactions reported by the RMs will be rolledback.  This CAN cause an inconsistency that the transaction may already have been committed by an another RM involved in the transaction.
      • Once all of the RM responded positively to xa_commit(), Tuxedo lazily deletes the entry of transaction log.  At this point, any breach will be similar to the first bullet above.

      Can you give us some details on what exactly is your concern?

      Kind regards

    • Recover from virus Cryptolock

      the best way to recover from the virus cryptolock? Also the file "firefox.exe" was lost during the virus cleaning. The rest of the tree under 'Program files/Mozilla Firefox' dir dir is intact. Of course, all standard file types that this virus goes after are encrypted under dir tree 'My Documents'. Most of the files are there, but others are encrypted. All this occur on a windows XP home 32 bit PC.

       Firefox was the default web access program, so many other programs that try to access the web through Firefox crash or do not run right. There are a number of add ons to Firefox (such as epub, and other readers, PDF, translators, download manager, etc.).  Some of the these have files that where encrypted.
      

      On the lack of response I got from this forum, I had to take this resolution into my own hands and here are the results.

      First of all, I made a backup of all the games of dir that Firefox uses under 'Programs' and 'Documents and Settings '. It was a precautionary measure against losing some file that may need sill, such as bookmarks and other personalization data. Currently there is no help from this forum about what to do, I copied everything. Downloaded the latest version (29 in this case) of the installer on another computer, then put it on a USB key to switch to the computer being repaired. MS Internet Explorer has never been setup or used (although the updates where installed) on computer repair. I didn't go in time to see that if IE does not work, it is not the point here. Then I moved the install file to a temp on computer repair dir, then he ran. He installed all Firefox and as expected had some problems with Add-ons. Through Add-ons one at a time, only necessary an update download and where well, Microsoft .net should be removed/uninstalled and reinstalled to operate. Then I went back through sets of dir and removed all of the encrypted files that when left behind, not in use anyway. The backup of files where not necessary and I will be remove soon. At the moment, all right. See that it was not so difficult to explain.

      And Philipp, yes I will be to move to a more recent OS in the near future. But I'll be it during my own choice and need to run two computers at the same time I have to transfer data and programs.

      We can never be in a hurry to spend money.

    • Satellite L300 - I can recover from the hidden partition

      Hello

      The vista on my L300 will not start.

      I try to use the modem for the first time, but he could not communicate with the line. So I delete in "Device Manager".

      After the reboot, vista boot screen appears only for 3 seconds then restart the laptop. There is no way, no safe mode...

      Contact the hd as an external drive XP say 'unknown' 0 bytes, with Linux just like named 'vista' and I could open all the files.

      I have no recovery. DVD burning with the Toshiba Recovery program has failed tree times and so I give up.

      the hidden partition is ok. On my laptop from a different manufacture, I can recover from this hidden partition. Is it possible to do it on my L300?

      Thanks for the information

      Thorsten

      Hello!

      The hidden partition you want to say has nothing to do with the Toshiba recovery image.
      There are files for system restore, and it is a feature of Vista, not Toshiba. If you want more information about the restore of the system here is a good article from Wikipedia:
      http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/WinRE

      The HARD drive recovery folder contains the original recovery image and if you don t have access to this folder and do not burn the recovery disc, you need a new.
      You can get one from an ASP, but you can also order a disc here:
      https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

      Good bye

However, when I copy it, the entire document is printed. I was looking for, if I could change this on the officet, or the system of preferences on my mac, but couldn't find anything on the 8500. On mac, I could change something, but it was only the scans on insiders from my computer.

    • How can I enable the Task Manager after recovering from an attack of Win32.GEMA

      Hello

      I am running Windows XP SP3.

      I have recently had an attack of the Win32.GEMA Trojan horse. Details of it are here: http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/Threat/Encyclopedia/Entry.aspx?Name=Trojan%3AWin32%2FRansirac.G

      I recovered my system using:

      AVG Rescue Disk

      Kaspersky Rescue Disk

      BitDefender Rescue Disk

      Scan of MalwareBytes

      McAffee analysis

      Hitman Pro Scan

      Spybot scan

      Eusing Registry Cleaner

      CCleaner

      Overkill maybe? But it worked... Up to now

      Apparently, the Trojan horse disables the Task Manager and that is I'm having bad to restore.

      I followed the advice in this article from Microsoft - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913623/ - but when I followed this part

      To set the DisableTaskMgr registry entry to 0 for a specific user, follow these steps:

      1. Shut down the computer.
      2. Log the computer by using a user account with administrator permissions.
      3. Click Start, click run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.
      4. In the left pane, click the following registry subkey:
        HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
      5. In the right pane, double-click DisableTaskMgr.
      6. In the value data box, type 0, and then click OK.
      7. On the file menu, click exit.
      8. Restart the computer.

      N ° 5 says that disable TaskMgr should appear in the right pane, but there is no entry to disable TaskMgr. All it is an icon of the small 'ab' (the default) beside it, then, REG_SZ.

      Then I tried to follow this part of the article from Microsoft

      To set the DisableTaskMgr registry entry to 0 for all users, follow these steps:

      1. Shut down the computer.
      2. Log the computer by using a user account with administrator permissions.
      3. Click Start, click run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.
      4. In the left pane, click the following registry subkey:
        HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesSystem\\\
      5. In the right pane, double-click DisableTaskMgr.
      6. In the value data box, type 0, and then click OK.
      7. On the file menu, click exit.
      8. Restart the computer.

      This time off TaskMgr was in the right pane - this time with a little "ohho? icon followed REG_DWORD

      I tried to create a new entry for the current user by copying one for all users, but not joy.

      Any suggestions?

      CTRL + Alt + Del does not receive any reaction whatsoever, no Ctrl + Shift + Esc or click with the right button on the barv task and selecting the Task Manager

      Thank you in anticipation

      These KB articles are for a different problem when you receive these messages when you run the Task Manager...

      Some malicious software is aware of the methods you're most likely to use to find and remove it (Task Manager, System Restore, command prompt, Internet, Google, etc.)

      The malware does not allows you to use things like the Task Manager to find and remove, so it prevents them from becoming a process running on the system and the process will not start or the process will be completed as soon as it is launched.

      The malware is happier when he let you think you need to use system restore, a repair install or reinstall your XP from scratch to fix your system when none of this is necessary.

      You can fool the malware (and then fix it).

      Assuming that your Windows is installed on your drive C, using Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder c:\windows\system32 and locate taskmgr.exe.

      Copy the taskmgr.exe file and rename the copy something malicious software will not recognize.  I like to call the copy:

      c:\windows\system32\jose.exe

      Double-click on jose.exe and see if the Windows Task Manager window opens now.

      The problem is the malware won't let the taskmgr.exe a running process, but he does not know jose.exe as a running process in order to thwart you all (I have a feeling that he will well a day on jose.exe).

      Will not 'fix' your task manager, but at least you will know whether or not the Task Manager mechanism works (taskmgr.exe still not start properly).  If you try to remove some malware and the need to use the Task Manager, you can simply launch jose.exe (double-click) instead, but will be still infected your system.
