Ralix Windows Emergency Boot Disk - For Windows 98, 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 10 PC Repair DVD All in One Tool (Latest Version)

Super happy with this disk! Lost access to the Administrative password and locked up my computer. I took my tower to a repair shop where I was told that due to some encryption issues they were unable to unlock my computer, and that they had even called Dell directly and were told the same thing. I had already purchased this disk by that time, so I figured 'what the heck, I'll give it a try' - and SURPRISE I was able to get in and remove the password requirement. It was a bit more evolved than that, but the end result was that I can use my computer again! I highly recommend this disk if you need access to a locked up computer. I am no genius - I know just enough to get around, but no coding or scripts, or anything and it was a piece of cake!

Simply wouldn't work.. I have a Toshiba Satellite P105-S6147 with Windows Vista and Intel Pentium Dual Core T2060 1.6 GHz processor. When inserting the CD into the drive and setting it to boot from the CD-ROM a Blue Square Windows logo appears on the screen for a long time, and the CD-ROM drive activity light is active. Eventually I am presented with a blue error screen which says: "Recovery Your PC/Device needs to be repaired. This 64-bit application couldn't load because your PC doesn't have a 64-bit processor.... File: \windows\sytem32\boot\winload.exe Error code: 0xc000035a" If I remove the CD and boot from the hard drive everything starts normally, and I am presented with the login screen and the account for which I have forgotten my password.. Seller's website is no longer active, and the email they provide on the instruction card goes un-answered. Attempts to contact via Amazon went unanswered well. Returned item for full refund

Good: ->Delivered without delays and in good working condition. ->As advertised it allows to correct booting issues. ->Really inexpensive if you take into account that buying an actual OS disk from Microsoft is over $100 and if you only have booting issues that's unnecessary. Bad: ->At least for me it did not work as expected. I had read several forums and even their own instructions online as to how the recovery would work, but it did not work that way. Instead it booted into it's own live version and only because I knew what I was doing I was able to open the cmd terminal and fix my bootloader. *However* I'm confident they can email you instructions if you get stuck, as they promise they do.

With the completion of Windows 10 updates this boot desk is a great device to help. Keep your unit healthy if you run into a problem. You can reboot your Windows 10 system with this desk and re-initiate it saving you money from going to a computer technician to get it fixed

They provide a piece of paper with an email. Some have already uploaded a picture for that. Overall I can say that this CD only have a compilation of already free software out there to troubleshoot your computer. The difference is that they will boot into a windows environment so you can run them from them. But it won’t really fix some of the issues, some are just so you can run them from the CD, others won’t even open because you need to but the premium software. This is not a CD with a software that will help you fix your computer. I ended up making a bootable CD from my laptop on a USB and I was able to work around that. The CD, not worth my money, there is some website that explains how to use it, but it’s no brainer.

But I'm an optimist and will keep on hoping that this will, at some time work for me. Maybe this is because it will only self-boot when pretty much anything would. Or maybe not. And , actually, I haven't seen any activity . I have nothing to tell me if this thing actually has something on it. Maybe it will someday come to life and I can stop using an old fixit cd.

Thought I'd give it a chance, worked like a charm.

It didn't help me with fixing a computer, that's why I bought it. It gets you to the point of being able to get to a screen to restore to a previous version of windows if you still have the windows files. You can restore the version of windows you have now if you still have the files. You can also start from command prompt. I had missing Windows files so the CD was a waste of time & my $$$.

Unfortunately this disc runs using a windows 10 based image, (from my research) this means that it doesn't always work in restoring older Windows XP computers since the windows 10 image requires more Ram than they have available

Boots my computer up in Windows 7 and won't allow me to connect to WiFi to download windows 10. Probably better to acquire a Windows 10 specific install source.

Disc didn't work

Did not work for me

This item is ideal if your looking for something that is easy to use for a quick reboot for any windows laptop
