[RESOLVED] Instant Sheller can't undo, blackscreen

[TOTOZY]

Hi everyone,

Just finished my cabinet and installed a front end on Windows 10. I came across Instant Sheller and that's exactly what i needed.

Tried and installed it, let it run until it tell me to reboot. When i rebooted i was on a blackscreen and HyperSpin didn't even boot. Opened explorer.exe and tried Instant Sheller again to undo the changes. Rebooted but i'm in the same situation..

Worst yet, since windows isn't started it doesn't find my USB key where Instant Sheller is located so i can't try anything more.

Tried the regedit thing, i changed everything to explorer.exe in the Shell line. Rebooted but still the same.

What are my options, fresh install of windows ?

Thanks guys !

Have you tried installing the app to an actual drive instead of a USB thumbdrive?

[TOTOZY]

I have not, and my system is not connected to internet so i have no way to get the software..

Ok so i unplugged my HDD, plugged it on my main PC using adaptor.

Put Instant-Shell exe on the HDD, put it back on Arcade.

Launched Instant-Shell, tried to shell again, same thing with the black screen and stuff, didn't work.

Rebooted and undo the change, same thing black screen.

Used regedit and re-changed the value to explorer.exe EVERYWHERE, current_user, local_machine, hkey_users,..

Booted to windows finally, kinda scared to use the program again now..

What can i do to shell correctly ?

thanks !

Since you are not running GameEx, asking for your log file will be useless, so will need for you to launch System Information and screen capture and post it to the thread. This will provide OS buile information that may be of use to @Tom Speirs when he is able to look into your issue.

Also if you don't mind confirming the version of Instant Sheller you are running. The latest version is 2.01.

Below is an example of my System Information page:

You have to be careful where you install or put instant sheller. If you ran it off a usb, this would probably be expected behaviour Sorry.

This is why I now provide an installer.

Sorry i didn't post back sooner.

I already used the last version of Instant Sheller, but using the installer and not the portable version on the USB fixed my problems.

I'm able to fully shell into HyperSpin with no problems, and can even shell and undo multiples times in a row without problems.

Thanks for your help and your time ( and the awesome tool ).

Case closed !

Thanks so much for replying with your confirmation of Tom's solution!
