- We first suggest that you run the System File Checker Utility. The button provided on the Welcome page, will ‘run sfc /scannow‘ and will check for and replace any corrupted Windows system files. It is expected to take anywhere from 5-10 minutes. If asked to, do a reboot.
- Next, we insist that you create a System Restore Point. The provided button will create one, called Safe Point. We always recommend that you create one before making any changes to your system. Should you wish or need too, you can always go back to this Safe Point.
- Having done that, apply at most one fix at a time and restart your computer. Please check if things are to your satisfaction; and if not, you have the option of restoring back immediately. Read & watch what Fox8Live News has to say about The Windows Club & FixWin HERE.
FixWin Utility v 1.2 has been developed by my MVP colleague Ramesh Kumar, for The Windows Club. It has been tested on Windows 7 & Vista, 32-bit, and 64-bit versions. However, FixWin may fail to run if you have modified Windows 7 or Vista Image using third-party apps like vLite, etc, as it may miss some core components required for FixWin to run and thus cause of failure. The solutions used in this utility have been primarily sourced from WinVistaClub, TheWindowsClub & WindowsValley, and the remaining developed by him. Fix Freezes or Crashes with these resources from TheWindowsClub: Windows 10 freezes | Windows Explorer crashes | Internet Explorer freezing| Google Chrome Browser crashes | Mozilla Firefox Browser freezing | Computer hardware freezes.
