FixWin is a freeware portable application to repair & fix common Windows annoyances & issues.

FixWin detects whether you have Windows 7 or Windows Vista installed and accordingly offers you the relevant fixes only. While there were several tutorials and how-to’s already available on the Internet to deal with such annoyances, FixWin  as a single utility was conceptualized, to fix some of the common annoyances which may be faced by a Windows user.

Fixes for these and many more such common Windows problems are being offered here.

• 2. Next we insist that you create a System Restore Point. The provided button will create one, called Safe Point. We always recommend that you create one before making any changes to your system. Should you wish or need too, you can always go back to this Safe Point.
