it needs a repair? really?

can you explain a bit?

Explain what ?
Simply follow the instructions and check if the problem is solved.

It’s worth a try.

xraiderv18 · 2017-04-25T16:06:54.000Z

ok, given its not a pressing problem, I’ll deal with it friday, before the next scheduled scan days, that way I’m not left sitting for a week wondering if the repair worked or not.

Asyn · 2017-04-25T16:09:35.000Z

OK, report back.

xraiderv18 · 2017-05-02T03:02:34.000Z

running the repair tonight, I’ll have to wait a week for the next monday to see if it does it again.

xraiderv18 · 2017-05-02T03:29:41.000Z

repair complete?

after the restart, I didnt get a notification or nothing on the repair being complete…so i am unsure if it completed or not.

edit:
ok, I did get a warning flagging windows defender as an incompatible product, recommending I uninstall it. but it gave me the option to restart to complete the repair.

Asyn · 2017-05-02T03:34:42.000Z

Yes, that’s normal.

xraiderv18 · 2017-05-02T04:02:55.000Z

and avast telling me windows defender is incompatible and to consider uninstallation…as the last screen of the repair process?

Never have seen this one, could you post a screenhot.

xraiderv18 · 2017-05-02T04:07:48.000Z

…if I’d had the where with all to do so when it occurred. tell you what…if avast tries to run the full system scan next monday at 11pm, I’ll rerun the repair and see if I cant get that screen back.

Asyn · 2017-05-02T04:21:37.000Z

OK. Cheers.

I too would consider this unusual/strange, only those who actually installed windows defender can uninstall it. For those with windows 7 onwards they can only disable it and windows should disable it when avast is installed, weird.

I think it was the windows 10 creators update, thats knocked a fair few programs that previously worked without issue for a loop, in my case I had to reset a program I use when doing the internet radio dj thing, a few others I know, a british friend, ended up reinstalling starwars the old republic as a result of this update.

come to think of it…the windows 10 anniversary update did the exact same thing now that I think about it.

that said…the full scan has not run yet this week, that said, I’ll consider it resolved by the repair, this time next week if it has not run again without being commanded/instructed to.

DavidR · 2017-05-16T15:55:53.000Z

Well I haven’t got the Creators Update on my win10 system.

xraiderv18 · 2017-05-24T17:45:31.000Z

I do believe its fixed. the repair appears to have worked.
