We are pleased to release a first-of-its-kind application for Windows 7 & Vista: FixWin. FixWin is a 529 KB freeware portable application to repair & fix common Windows annoyances & issues. FixWin detects whether you have Windows 7 or Windows Vista installed and accordingly offers you the relevant fixes only. Windows 8 users may want to download FixWin v2 for Windows 8.
UPDATE:
19th March 2010. FixWin v 1.2 has been released which includes some
minor bugfixes and UI changes. The download links mentioned below point
to FixWin v 1.2 now.
While
there were several tutorials and how-to’s already available on the
Internet to deal with such annoyances, FixWin as a single utility was
conceptualized, to fix some of the common annoyances which may be faced
by a Windows user.
Does
your Recycle Bin not refresh correctly? Or maybe you find that for some
reason your right click context menu has been disabled in Internet
Explorer! Or perhaps things are not fine with your Windows Media Center
and you need to flush & rebuild Windows Media Center database! Maybe
you opted to be not-warned while deleting Sticky Notes and you now want
the warning dialog box back! Or then perhaps, post a malware attack you
find that your task manage or cmd or your Registry Editor has been
disabled! Fixes for these and many more such common Windows problems are
being offered here.
The
solutions to repair and fix 50 common Windows annoyances, issues &
problems have been categorized under 5 tabs, viz : Windows Explorer,
Internet & Connectivity, Windows Media, System Tools & Misc
Additional Fixes.
50 problems … 1 solution … FixWin is the Windows Doctor all have been waiting for!
How to use this application:
1. 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 reboot.
2. 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.
3. 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.
