Dial-a-fix
|
Dial-a-fix is a tool to assist advanced users with the repair of various Windows problems, such as problems with Windows Updates, COM/ActiveX object errors, WSH, VBscript, and Jscript issues, broken Windows system applications and more. We need to stress the fact that this program is not intended as a casual tune-up or fix-all software, but specifically aimed at technical users that have at least a fairly good idea of what kind of problem they are trying to fix. Dial-a-fix applies solutions that are based on Microsoft Knowledgebase articles, Microsoft MVPs, and other repair solutions from selected support forums. The program`s primary philosophy is to fix problems by setting various things back to their Microsoft defaults. It also includes shortcuts to several common fixes like flushdns, repair IE, reset the Windows firewall and others.
Dial-a-fix is a collection of 'known fixes' that have been compiled over the past year that really knock out some serious Windows problems, all with one or two clicks. "When in doubt, check 'em all".
Dial-a-fix tackles issues with SSL/Cryptography, Windows Update, Microsoft Installer, and many miscellaneous shell problems. Example: If you get a blank screen when trying to visit Windows Update, simply checkmark the main Windows Update checkmark (in box #3) and click GO. Most issues can be resolved in a similar manner, if not by combinations of fixes. There is also a 'check all' button which is useful as a last ditch effort, or when you don't understand where a particular problem is coming from.
Most of the fixes Dial-a-fix uses are found in various Microsoft Knowledgebase articles, and articles written by Microsoft MVPs. When you see a list of DLLs that need to be registered using REGSVR32.EXE, chances are they are already listed in Dial-a-fix. Mouseover a checkbox or button to obtain more information about what will be executed, or what DLLs will be registered.
