Bad Windows Update
Posted by K-Tech on October 21, 2019

I had multiple Windows 7 computers caught in a startup loop caused by Microsoft Patch Tuesday, created a DVD from easy recovery essential iso booted from it ran automatic repair and it found and removed the corrupt update and repaired startup, this took about 20 min and saved me hours

Fixed 1234F mbr boot error!
Posted by PVi1 on October 13, 2019

Hats off gentlemen! After Windows7 update on 10.10.2019 deleted all partitions from SSD on my wife's notebook, I had used testdisk.exe from cgsecurity to rescan and recreate them, but I was stucked on 1234F mbr boot error. Having no installation media (thanks @Acer) I had no chance to run stuff like bootrec, fixboot, etc. I have tried several windows recovery images but always ended on dialog stating I have to use other version of recovery media due to incompatibility with installed version of Windows. So after 90minutes of wasting my time I went ahead and bought EASYRE for Windows 7 for approx 20usd. Then downloaded tools from EASYRE for deploying iso images and booted it from usb! The only minor glitch was that touchpad did not work, but few TABS and enters was enough to start Automatic fix. I had crossed my fingers and read the output of autofix. It had detected problems with windows updates, fixed autoboot, unmarked flags on partitions and finished successfully.

Editor's Note: 

I'm really happy EasyRE worked for you! If you let us know the model number of your Acer laptop, we can have the engineering and QA teams try to make sure the touchpad issue is resolved in a future release.

Didn't Work

I followed all the tutorials they sent me, and I also contacted the support team, and the laptop didn't boot — what a waste of time and money.

Not free

Found multiple sources reporting this program as free however it clearly is not.

Worth every cent
Posted by Nick on September 22, 2019

Having spent several hours attempting to make my PC reboot - including hard drive swaps and following pages and pages of suggested automatic and manual fixes using windows recovery tools ..... I finally gave in and stumped up the $40 for EasyRE. RESULT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Up and running again in 30 minutes. Well worth the $40 as every hour spent PC fixing is an hour less time doing fee paying work.

Only one GRIPE. When you've stumped up $40 for software, neosmart trying to extract an extra $10 for the iso to USB tool leaves a nast taste in the mouth. They got 1$ extra off me and not a cent more. Come on guys, be fair, just bundle it in with the rest of the software.

Editor's Note: 

Nick - the USB tool is a free download. The $10 purchase is only when making Windows setup USBs, not EasyRE recovery USBs which are included in the free version! Please shoot us an email for a refund of those $10!

Didn't work at all

Won't even boot. Followed the directions step by step.

Really works great!!

I had an issue with the USB creator trying to get EasyRE booting from a flash drive for some reason, even after following all the instructions like enabling legacy boot and turning off secure boot. However, burning it to a DVD disc and using an external optical disc drive worked PERFECTLY and got my laptop booting again. I selected the auto repair option and it just went to town!! I just saw processes it was running flash on my screen and next thing you know, I restart my laptop to the Windows login screen. Freaking incredible.

Bought the product, does not do much and cost is horrible

Is this magic?
Posted by Lucas on September 11, 2019

Windows 7 f***ed up the last update, stuck on black screen with cursor. Experienced in resolving Windows errors, I spent 4 hours trying various ways to fix it, resulting in changing the error to missing /BOOT/BCD and then to missing bootmgr. Most tries to fix crashed with various errors anyway. Then I came across this software - automated fix everything? Yeah, sure... First it did not start - ok, make sure to use FAT32 for your USB as described in the FAQ.

And then it just worked! This is an auto-repair that actually works! And it worked on a problem where none of the standard fixes available on the internet was successful. I am really impressed :-)

Meltdown avoided
Posted by Brian Gamble on September 8, 2019

All my old tools failed with Windows 10 and bad GPT files (system could not find an OS). Despite 40+ years of PC building and support I was at a standstill. Discovered Easy Recovery Essentials, at a price I could live with. No problem creating a boot DVD which could and did rewrite usable Safe MBR and boot files, leaving me with a running Windows 10 installation. Many Thanks!

It worked for me

Hi. This morning, I found my computer restarted and on recovery partition. Main partition was not bootable and all repairing from windows recovery partition. Commands like bootrec /fixboot and bootrec /fixmbr were successful executed, but the problem was still here (no effect). Command bootrec /rebuildbcd refused to work with error "Failed to create a new system store. Status = [c000003a]". Tried Hiren's utilities on a boot usb but was not successful. One of the links on google search pointed on Easy RE. Tried it in last hope and it worked. Thanks.

Repaired Server 2008 boot problem
Posted by Peter Scrutton on September 2, 2019

I wasn't optimistic but after spending a couple of days trying all the things recommended by others I thought it was worth spending $99 just to get our Server 2008 working again. Sure enough it didn't let me down, it was $99 very well spent!

It’s real and it works!

By “mistake” I erased some important system files from a Windows Vista HP, I thought that it was a goner because the pc would only show the black booting screen where you decide to start windows normally or in safe mode but none of them will work, it would just return to the same screen. But after finding EasyRE and burning the software into a CD and doing a System Restore the computer went back to working again, it really worked.

Thanks!!

safe mode now not in menu
Posted by David on August 29, 2019

I bought a Windows 10 version which i have upgraded twice and have today done so again but find boot to “Safe Mode” in the menu is no longer on there so the disk will now not load the program.

EZ Recovery Disk Upgrade?
Posted by David on August 17, 2019

I purchased my previous version of this product about a year ago and I was very happy with the way it worked. It definitely saved me a lot of time and effort. I had a crash this year, popped the disk in and I got a message that said my version of widows was to new (Still windows 10 from last year). I was hoping that there was an available upgrade for existing customers. Unfortunately I ended up buying a new copy of the program. Granted it worked great, but it was another $20.00 for a piece of software I might use once or twice until the next revision comes out.
