Open Regedit.exe and navigate to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE \Microsoft
\Windows NT \CurrentVersion \Winlogon]. You should see a DWORD value named
"SFCDisable" with a value of "0". Change the value to "ffffff9d", Swap
notepad.exe with your editor of choice, put reg back and reboot again.

Backup notepad.exe before you start in case it doesn't work, oh and if it
kills your PC, it aint my fault :)
