How to Recover Windows

If your PC is unable to boot back into Windows 7 after installing a loader don't panic, simply do the following.

* Boot up your PC from your Windows 7 install disk
* Select the "Repair your computer" option
* Select to open "Command Prompt"
* Input "bootsect.exe /nt60 c:" (without quotes)
* Restart


*** If it still doesn't work try the command as "bootsect.exe /nt60 all" (without quotes)
*** You can also press the escape key (or R) during the boot process and select "Windows without loader"

How to restore tokens

1. Type cmd in Start menu.
2. Right-click on the first result (cmd.exe) and click on Run as administrator (confirm by clicking Yes if required).
3. Type

 slmgr -rilc
 net stop sppsvc
 cd %windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform
 rename tokens.dat tokens.bak
