Lock screen question

debgram said:

ok I'm going to do those 2 right now

O.k. let me know what happens after reboot, sometimes may have to do these 2 more then once and reboot.
Possibility this can be due to some software or drivers on this PC, maybe even an Anti-Virus software.

nope that didn't work either, I tried the second command twice

Well it was worth a try to fix corrupted files. Did you receive from sfc command no integrity violations and Dism restore operation completed successfully ?
If so research on this does not show me so far a cure to this issue my only other thoughts are a repair install of Windows 10.
Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade

You will not loose anything but i would backup any important files and software not backed up before trying this. My only other thoughts like i said before were some other program or drivers maybe causing this.
A clean install of windows 10 is a thought for the future.

Ok thanks for your help

Your welcome ! as far as that reg file you used in that tutorial for option 2, did you run as administrator by right clicking the file and making sure to fully accept the merging to the registry ? Can try that once more if you like before proceeding to repair install.

It didn't give me a choice to run as administrator, it just installed into the registry

Correct someone else asked me if you accepted it correctly as i have never really merged much into my registry in the past to recall.
Either give it another chance or decide on a repair install just remember to back up everything important before you proceed.
Make sure you also look for updated important system drivers on the ASUS's website for your motherboard for Windows 10, as this is important after upgrading.

Well I had to do the clean install because for some reason I couldn't boot into windows. Now I have the lock screen but the themes are messed up, can't find them on the computer just in the personalization screen but everything isn't on the screen, like on the bottom it tells you the sound scheme, wallpaper and if there's a screensaver, it all blank there.

Could not boot before trying a repair install ? O.K. you did a Clean install how so through Windows install disc or USB Flash drive, clean custom install like shown here in step 10 or upgrade install which kept settings ?

Yes i see that about the themes screen in control panel quite odd that this part is missing. Please specify how you did this clean install, how and when everything went wrong to lead you to do this since i originally specified repair install first.

I have windows iso on usb and dvd, but I u sed the dvd and tried repair, no luck, so I finally had to break down and do clean install, having it remove all my programs which I'm slowly getting back installed, I guess it was a good thing cause then I realized some programs I didn't need anymore. My IE 11 is running better too, windows live mail is running better. I did it like the link you provided. I am having another problem though after running sfc /scannow.........it couldn't repair some things and I saved the CBS file in .rar format in case you want to look at it
