Hi folks -
I've installed TweakUI for the benefits it gives me for the look of my
DeskTop Screen. I also tried installing ReStart and ShutDown Buttons on my
DeskTop but could only get the ShutDown button - which I've now deleted from
my machine. I don't know if either of those actions have anything to do with
this but when I go to Start>ShutDown>ReStart, my PC shuts down but doesn't
restart back up again. I have to manually shut my PC 'OFF' and restart it
again. I wanted to save a second and now, have gained 120 of them!
I can't go to System Restore because, for some reason, I always get a
message telling me that my PC can't be restored back to the date and time
I've selected, no matter which bold date I choose to go back to.
So I'm in a little mess here and would greatly appreciate any reply
regarding a way to solve either of these problems/situations.
Hope to hear from someone soon!
And thanks an awful lot,
Billy

What have you done via TweakUI?

You say you 'installed' "ReStart/ShutDown Buttons". Is
this third party software you are talking about?

What operating system?

Consider using: scanreg /restore
http://www.windows-help.net/windows98/start-145.shtml

Start Windows in MS-DOS mode (press the Ctrl key as soon as your PC starts.
This will get you the Bootup menu.
Once the menu is up, choose Command prompt only)
Type Scanreg /restore at the prompt press [ENTER]
You will get a screen where you can select which registry backup to use
Choose the last known [STARTED} and choose Restore
When ready you'll be prompted to Restart your computer.
