D.A. fan is back for an ME1 Text Only 'Let's Play' (page 51)

1. He can be arrested. (So, "paragon")

2. He's left in his mess. ("Neutral" I guess.)

3. He'll kill himself.

*Note that the only difference between 2 and 3 is that in 3 Jacob leaves his father the gun to kill himself. 2 is just leaving him there, without the pistol -- so, doing nothing for or against him.

I'm stuck between step -Set the Computer to Reboot in Safe Mode- And the next one which is-- Login as the Administrator User--- directions say a Login prompt will occur and none has.

Edit Add 1. 
I'm going to assume it auto logged me in as an administrator user. But command prompt can't seem to be pulled up in the Cortana search bar.

Edit add 2:
aha. I googled a way to bypass that silliness with Task Manager.

Edit Add 3:
No matter how I type it, I can't ensure the Pending Deletes and Pending Renames folders exist. All it tells me is that "That directory or file cannot be created"-- so I'm moving on.

I input the command prompt, sfc/scannow as an admin in safe mode. It is scanning very slowly.

Edit Add 5:
Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.-- which the step by step says is good? So, I used task manager to open msconfig. And told it to stop booting up in safe mode. And to restart.

Edit Add 6:
It didn't work. It just restarted after about 5 minutes for no reason.   My 90 minutes was well spent, obviously. Running a scannow as Admin again, just not safemode to see if we're back at the start or if it gives me a new error message.


Edit Add 7:
Again says it doesn't find any integrity violations.   Why computer, why?
