Question

Cant get computer out of safe mode

Oct 1, 2015 11:31AM PDT

On tuesday I went to use my computer and couldnt get connected to the internet, it kept saying "diagnostics policy service is nit running". After looking through forums to try and fix this I came across one which suggested I downloaded the windows repair tool from tweaking.com. I went to the repair tab and left it for a few hours to do the repairs. However it hasn't fixed the problem and now my computer will only boot up in safe mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have no idea whats going on!

Windows 8 and 10 have repair tools built in. Other Windows have other things to try but since you got this from tweaking.com what do they write to do next for that download?

Some of these apps do more damage than repair.

while it is in safe mode, try doing a system restore to a restore point prior to when the problems started.

Hello,

Go to start, search and type cmd, right click on returned cmd.exe and
select "run as administrator" at the prompt type

net localgroup Administrators /add networkservice
press enter then type:
net localgroup Administrators /add localservice
press enter then type:
exit
press enter and restart your computer

Open services and make sure the service is started.

The provided tutorial is based on the discussion I have found and stated it works.


Hope this will help your concern.
Have a blissful day!
