    Hi,

    I can assure you none of your data i.e. Files, apps and Documents would be lost. Everything would be kept.

    Good luck!

    Hi,

    Use this fixlist.txt and see if this helps.

    fixlist.txt

    Place it next to FRST64.exe, and run Fix.I’m eager to hear back and work together to find a solution.
