Instructions were not followed correctly. I also need you to re-read and complete this correctly please. Your machine will need to reboot, and checkdisk needs to be performed outside of windows.
There is nothing in here that would cause these issues, I suggest you run the all in one repair tool with all default items checked. I’d also suggest you run the checkdisk with the instructions I gave to you.
Open Everything search.
Copy and paste.
C:\FRST\Quarantine\C\Windows\system32\GroupPolicy\ GPT.ini.xBAD
Right click on the file and rename.
Then just delete the .xbad
Then copy and paste C:\FRST\Quarantine\C\Windows\system32\GroupPolicy\ GPT.ini
into the everything search window.
Drag this file to your desktop.
Then copy C:\Windows\system32\GroupPolicy
Double click that folder then drag the file from your desktop to that folder.
Copy and paste C:\QuickDiag\Quarantine\C\Windows\System\CMSPDIF2. ini .QuickScript
Into the everything search.
Right click rename delete the .QuickScript
Then copy C:\QuickDiag\Quarantine\C\Windows\System\CMSPDIF2 into everything search drag that file to desktop.
Then open C:\Windows\System
Drag that file from desktop to this folder.
Repeat for any file that you like still will not change the issue.
If however you run the check disk as suggested and then run the all in one tool with all default items checked the issue will be resolved. But maybe not if you add these files back to your computer.
You can go through and add back every file that I removed then reboot your machine, but once you see that it is nothing that I removed, I’d suggest that you re-run the fixes to put those files back into quarantine, then run the check disk with the instructions I provided, then run the all in one tool with all the boxes checked as suggested.
