Clean install, no VM console. U98SESP3 with all updates installed. I believe you was on the right track with the last option.

A fool's design, for sure! ...
I tried this and it didn't work. System Restore didn't restore anything.Blissy wrote:Specifically, we might try changing the jz at 76113F13 to jmp, since it is the last conditional branch before it sets that it is protected.
I gave it a try, and it worked. No problems upgrading or downgrading files or anything. It seems System File Protection and System Restore go hand in hand at some point.Blissy wrote:You know, I started to think about this and I seemed to remember that Windows ME (unlike 2k which had some files hardcoded) was fairly to easy to configure which files would be protected by sfp. So, I started to look into it a little and have configured sfpdb.sfp and filelist.xml files to only protect the dos command EDIT.COM. I would have removed everything, but when I did that it system restore fail to make restore points, so at least 1 file is needed. Instead of patching a .dll, which, by the way, could be overwritten by an update, this is probably an easier way to go about it, if you're willing to give it a try.
This is exactly what we might need. Can you give me a hand with this? If we combine this method with your other method using the modded FILELIST.XML we might just be able to get it working. I remember someone did something similar to this for Windows 2000/XP. I also learned that System Restore requires IE 5.5 or higher core files to work.Blissy wrote:You could patch the code to read data from a different .CAT file (and empty one) than it writes to when it does updates.
