Windows 10: Empty windows directory

Hi,


My laptop has stopped booting and cannot recover. When I boot from a CD and get into DOS, `dir Windows`, it says there are no files found. All the other directories are there, Users...etc.


The last thing I did prior to this was to enable SMB v1 client and server. I had, prior to that, had a lot of problems with some recent updates and had to use system restore after an update left my laptop in a continious round of booting and attempting to recovery. That was an issue with Intel's `iastora.sys` driver.


I guess I have no chioce but to use the CD and re-install windows unless I hear from someone here of a less arduous plan.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Dermot

Directory Size Utility

First of all nice utility, Mindweaver!
Second of all, it's so nice to see that this section ain't dead.

I have a few questions/suggestions, maybe you'd want to see ...

• maybe you rename Get Folder button caption to something more intuitive? Add Folder, Get Folder Size, Check Folder Size or something like that?
  
• Could you add subfolder files to the right pane? (it can be a tickbox with include sub dirs)
  
• maybe you also add export list to excel?
  
• there's delete file button maybe you add delete folder button too?
  
• and finally maybe you can add UP button for directories?
