Hi Peter,

The problem persists in Min OS as well as in normal OS mode.

Hi Peter,

I am in min OS mode.

Task manager - Services shows WinDefend as stopped.
In processes there is no MsMpEng.

Hi Peter,

It's a normal account with the password being 1234. Actually I can really do away with the password altogether as its a dedicated audio pc with no Internet connection.

Hi Peter,

I did that but it doesn't solve the problem.

Hi Peter,

With XXHE playing in unattended mode if I click Alt+X, normally it should bring up XXHE screen, but in my case the screen, to sign in, comes up. I have to key in/enter my password, then hit Alt+X to bring up XXHE.

Is there something I need to do in settings? This problem is observed after I installed W 10074 as my OS.

Hi Peter,

It's the Pro version.

I don't recall which site I downloaded it from but I presume it must be from the site recommend by you on the forum. But then again I may be wrong. I had downloaded it a long time back but didn't have the courage to use it then.

Hi Peter,

Maybe I didn't explain it correctly.

-I boot my PC.
-Open XXHE.
-Load a track in the playlist & click play.
-Play doesn't take place, instead I get 2 error messages.
"MemOrg error 02; if this persists switch off Garbage Collect in settings".
"Input string was not in correct format".
-I go to settings deactivate Garbage collect.
-Click play & it starts.
-Re Activate Garbage Collect, XXHE plays OK.
-Again on next reboot the same process has to be followed.

Best regards,

Hi Peter,

I have include garbage collect on in my settings. Whenever I boot & start XXHE, it doesn't play & I get an error msg stating to shut garbage collect. Shutting it play starts. After playing a track, I start garbage collect & it plays.

This happens after every boot.

What could be the reason?

Hi Peter,

I followed the below quoted steps which you sent me.

Ctrl+shift+esc brings up Task manager.
In TaskManager :
Go to the File Menu in the top left;
Choose "New Process";
In there type cmd for a Command Prompt;
In the (black) Command prompt type :
control appwiz.cpl [enter]

If all is right you see the W7Shell program (with a Name I don't know) at the top when you sort this Programs and Features on Date Installed.
Rightclick it and choose Uninstall (Remove).

Best regards,

Arvind

Hi Peter,

It worked the desktop is back on.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Peter,

You're correct I did miss out the part of not switching to W7 shell

I also haven't created a restore point, which would have automatically happened if I had min the OS.

The good part is that ctrl+shift+esc brings up task manager.

So what would be the next step?

Hi Peter,

Today I switched shells to Win 7 & after rebooting the desktop comes up blank. No taskbar no start icon. I can't start XXHE or anything else.

Obviously I messed up somewhere.

Arvind

Hi Peter,

Installed win 10074 & 2.03. Everything seems fine but I can't seem to see the desktop after I quit XXHE. I am not in min OS as yet. The screen is blank.

Best regards,

Arvind

Hi Peter,

Count me in too. Have already sent you a PM on this subject.

Best regards,

Arvind
