HelpMePlease Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 I forgot to back up my registry and now none of my .lnk files will open. I tried to use the system restore feather on my Windows Xp sp2 system and it will only open a white blank background. This all started right after I used the CCleaner registry cleaner and noticed that it had found over 4000 supposed registry errors. Then I hit the fix all error button and sent my computer to hell. Please help me!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keithuk Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Welcome to Piriform HelpMePlease. I forgot to back up my registry and now none of my .lnk files will open. Well that was your first mistake. Why do you think it allows you to make a backup of what it removes from the registry? They are only small files a few Kb so they aren't going to swamp anything. I tried to use the system restore feather on my Windows Xp sp2 system and it will only open a white blank background. This all started right after I used the CCleaner registry cleaner and noticed that it had found over 4000 supposed registry errors. Then I hit the fix all error button and sent my computer to hell. Please help me!!! So your system restore doesn't do anything? Have you used system restore before?

whiteknight Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I wonder if you have tried chkdsk? From the start menu select run then type in chkdsk, I have found it quite good at recovering lost or orphaned files also try to get updated to XP sp3..................................whiteknight. ps. This morning I thought I'd check my copy CCleaner v2.10.618 I ran chkdsk before using it and after it again with some screen shots before CCleaner Shot at 2008-08-26 and after CCleaner Shot at 2008-08-26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
