This tool uninstalls MBRFilterPP
Steps:
1.Download the executable from here or compile it yourself, then place it in a easy path say:
C:\MBRUnins.exe
- Boot to WinRE then go to Troubleshoot > Advanced Options > Startup settings > Restart > Safe Mode (Minimal or with networking doesn't matter)
or you can do it Via bcdedit.exe with:
bcdedit /set {current} safeboot minimal
or you can boot with networking if you need to download the tool
bcdedit /set {current} safeboot network
- Open cmd.exe and type in:
X:\Path\to\executable.exe
Few notes to keep in mind:
- Change the Drive letter X: to where the actual executable lives.
- You need the full path to the executable. For example, if you have it in your Users folder, you would need to type:
C:\Users\MBRUnins.exe
That is why I recommend just placing it in the root of the C:\ drive for easier access. Oh, and don't forget to include the actual .exe extension and not justC:\MBRUnins!
- after running the tool successfuly (Which only runs in safe mode)
open regedit.exe and go to:
HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services
AND ITS SYMBOLIC LINK:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
and make sure that MBRFilterPP doesn't exist afterwards,
go to:
HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Class{4d36e967-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
and make sure of UpperFilters value it should be only:
partmgr
AND NOT:
partmgr
MBRFilterPP
MAKE SURE that the value partmgr is ONLY partmgr without spaces and make sure of the value itself IT SHOULD NOT be empty at all!
Edge cases:
you may have other filters installed as well while this could cause issues but if so:
make sure the value is
partmgr
(and other filters)
MBRFilterPP SHOULD NOT be in that list or value
- after making sure the service and its components are removed properly you can reboot and you should be fine
