Updates failed since KB5036899 on windows server 2016.

[PeterJ]

Do you have another Windows Server 2016 which we can use as a source ?

 

[Dr Phil]

Hello Peter,

I have an other server 2016 who had a similar problem [SOLVED] - Updates failed since KB5036899 on windows server 2016.

I can use it as source

Thanks

Run the following script on the other server to collect the requested files.

Colllect Files

• Download the attachment SFCFixScript.txt and save it on your desktop.
• Save any work you have open, and close all programs.
• Drag the SFCFixScript.txt file over the SFCFix.exe executable and release it.
  
  
• SFCFix will launch, let it complete.
• Once done, 2 files will appear on your desktop, called SFCFix.txt and Files.zip.
• Attach both files to your next reply.

Hello Peter,

Where i download the SFCFixScript.txt?

Thanks

 

[PeterJ]

Oops. Attached now in my previous message.

 

[Dr Phil]

Hello Peter,

Here's the 2 files

Thanks

 

[PeterJ]

Something went wrong. The zip is empty.
Do the folders and files mentioned in the script exist on the other server ?

 

[Dr Phil]

Some files are similar but they don't exist

 

[PeterJ]

If the files do not exist in the given folders then it is normal the zip file is empty. We can't use that server as a source.

 

[Dr Phil]

I have other server 2016 i'll check them

 

[PeterJ]

Ok.

 

[Dr Phil]

Hello Peter,

I tried all my server 2016 none of them have the files.

Thanks

 

[Dr Phil]

Hello Peter,

Can i get those files from a server 2016's ISO?

Thanks

 

[PeterJ]

Maybe form an old ISO, not from one which is up-to-date ?

Edit:
I just noticed a small typo in the script in message #23.
