sasuninst.exe breaks system

[spyt]

There is something strange in SASUNINST.EXE util.

I used it to remove SUPERantiSpyWare from Windows2000.

After rebooting system hangs with "Windows could not start because the

following file is missing or corrupt:

\WINNT\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM "

This was the second time in a couple of months.

Unfortunately I didn't remember the first time

and backup all the related files before using the util again.

Perhaps I thought that it was just a coincidence on the

first time.

Now what?

[SUPERAntiSpy]

The SASUNINST.EXE only deletes SUPERAntiSpyware, nothing else.

This happens in Windows 2000 with other antivirus and antispyware programs. I don't think it's when they are uninstalled but when they are installed. Here is some information from Microsoft at this link.

You've got issues with the registry if you're receiving that error message. I'd recommend testing for hardware stability by running memtest86+ for 12-24 hours, and if it passes run StressPrime for another 12 hours.

You can use Erunt for doing regular backups of the registry: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download1267.html

u can try Revo-Uninstaller which is at least 100x better than the useless window uninstaller...
