    except WAT fix doesn't work perfectly every time. My slui.exe is still tampered, and sfc /scannow doesn't fix it either. Check the DAZ loader thread for info

    Never said it worked 100% but, 9 out of 10 times WATFix does work. But if you don't try WATFix/Sfc /scannow you'll never know if it worked.

    True. Sorry if that sounded like I was pissed or mad. Just saying, like.

    I would guess that permissions have been set so even the system cannot restore the file.

    @hsram Try doing a sfc /scannow in an elevated command prompt.

    Edit: RemoveWAT should be used as a LAST resort for those of you who can not manage to activate via a BIOS mod or a loader. As i stated earlier, it butchers your system files and changes permissions on files. This is not a knock on Hazar he's done a lot of good for a lot of people here at MDL. At least you should try to understand how something works before you blindly throw a program on your computer.

    What Hazar is doing is amazing and I love it. I used it on my laptop and it works perfectly with what I need to do. I simply accidentally ran it on my desktop (I had it renamed as a different name).

    I already did a sfc /scannow and it came up with a bunch of files that were corrupted (I would like to say 8 or so). After running the WAT Fix, it went down to 1 file and it was the file I mentioned.

    The the permissions on the file is still locked, have you tried to do a repair?

    Sorry guys, just want to make sure I don't get ignored with my issue. If someone is looking into it I appreciate it. If it's simply something that can't be debugged then just please say so, so I don't have the grievience of having to monitor this thread, etc. I hate to have to keep re-posting asking over and over again about it. If this comes across as being in-patient, I just noticed that other people were getting taken care of...

    No I have not but I do still have the software to create a recovery disc/wipe everything from scratch though. You've been more than helpful anyways so thanks for that! I guess I can manage for now with 1 file being corrupted instead of ~6-8. :p

    @All.

    ATM the thread seems to be unsupported by the author.

    Please keep that in mind, before trying remove WAT.

    Bobsheep,

    Thanks for the reply. I knew someone would come through eventually. That other win7 loader u linked worked beautifully.

    Hope to contribute further here soon (if I ever have time)

    peace
