Thanks Ray... Actually this happend to me twice on the Vista 64 OS. The first time was following a very lengthy scan that i cancelled because it was running so long... over 9000 items. Later restarting RegVac, the Welcome Page did not appear, only the copyright box frame, no printing, just the shape of the frame like a rectangular hole in the middle of the screen in front of all other windows. the 'hole' could not be moved, and could not get RegVac to open. So I tried uninstalling RegVac and received and error message regarding the uninstalltion. did not save the message and Regvac was inoperable. Then I recovered the use RegvVac by using a previously set Restore Point (this action eliminated the last too large Undo file). A few days later I ran RegVac again, this time in Novice Mode, it collected some 16oo+ items to delete. All was good. then a few days later i asked it to run in Expert Zone, checked the 'BadLink' - 'Entire Registry' and the 'Remove Suspect Keys' boxes, and kept track of the activity on Task Manager. it ran for 5 hours, collected 22969 items to delete. the Undo file was over 15Mb... This time I could not get Regvac to restart again either, as you suggest the Undo file is probably way too large. Since I had other issues with Outlook 2007 to fix, I reset again to and earlier "Restore Point". Right now all is well with Regvac, it will load, but I am nervous about running it, having read the earlier issue concerning Vista 64 and 'Windows Defender' and 'Windows Media Network' services conflicts in V 64. I do want to find out more about that to make RegVac safe to use on my Vista 64 OS... I know I need a good cleaning because of a lot of intalling and uninstalling to get all the different software working together... sorry this is so windy... I look forward to other develpment here on this issue, and will help anyway I can.. Please advise, and comment... thank you very much... My Regards! PS: how large an Undo file can RegVac handle?? |
