Hi PeterJ,

thank you for your suggestions.

I've ran FRST64.exe again, this time with your new Fixlist.
Afterwards, I uploaded the result (Fixlog.txt) to WeTransfer:

Do you have the Turkish language pack installed ?
 
Hi PeterJ,

no, we just have the german language pack installed on this server.

Hi PeterJ,

I zipped and uploaded the requested logs:
https://we.tl/t-cXvGHDqes0

We saw, that there a some foreign languages listed, but we installed the server just with the german language pack.
This is a screenshot of the control panel:

Do you think that the Windows Defender will be installable, when we get rid of the other (invisible) additional language packs?

Thank you for your fixlists and your suggestions!


Best regards,

BrewDrew
 
We gonna look further.

FRST Registry Search
  1. Click the Start button and choose Control Panel.
  2. In the upper right corner ensure the View by: is set to Category.
  3. Select the Programs group.
  4. Click the Turn Windows features on or off link. This will bring up the Server Manager or Windows Features dialog.
    Note: This loads your components hive which is what we want. Please keep this dialog open while you perform the remaining steps. You can minimize it if you wish but keep it open.

  5. Right-click on the file FRST64.exe and choose Run as administrator.
  6. Copy and paste KB5008207 into the Search box and click the Search Registry button.
  7. When the scan is complete, a message will display that 'SearchReg.txt' is saved in the same folder FRST was started from. Notepad will open this file also. Close Notepad and attach the file 'SearchReg.txt' to your next reply.
  8. You may close any remaining open windows now.
 
Hi PeterJ,

I zipped and uploaded the requested log:
SearchReg.txt

Please note, that we did follow your instructions exactly like you told us to do so (keeping the dialog open while we perform the remaining steps, etc).


Thank you for your help and best regards,

BrewDrew
 
The search didn't find anything.

Provide the Components Hive again:
1. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file.
2. Please copy this file to your desktop.
Note: If you receive an error that this file is in-use, simply reboot your computer and try again. Note: If you find that you need to reboot and are unable to because this is a server then try Option#2 below.
3. Right-click on this file on your desktop and select Send To...Compressed (zipped) folder. This will create a file named COMPONENTS.ZIP on your desktop.
4. The file will likely be too large to upload here so please upload to Gofile or WeTransfer and just provide the link here.

Option#2 (only if you are unable to follow the previous instructions)

  • Please download the Freeware RegBak from here: Acelogix Software - Download products
    You will find it at the bottom of the page that the link brings you to.
  • Go ahead and install this program and accept all the defaults. After the last install screen the program should open.
  • Click the New Backup button. Accept the defaults and simply click Start.
  • When it says Finished successfully, click the Close button.
  • This will bring you back to the main screen of the program. You will see one entry in this list with the date that you did it. Right-click on this line-item and select Explore Backup...
  • This will bring you into the folder where the backup was made. You should see a Users folder and a Windows folder along with a couple other files. Double-click on the Windows folder to open it. Then open the System32 folder and then config folder. You should see around 6 files in here, one of which is named COMPONENTS.
  • Copy the COMPONENTS file to your Desktop. If the COMPONENTS file does not exist, please fetch it instead from C:\Windows\System32\config\COMPONENTS.
  • Now right-click on the COMPONENTS file that is on your desktop and select Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder.
  • Then please upload the zip file (COMPONENTS.zip) to your favourite file sharing website (it will be too big to upload here). Examples of services to upload to are Gofile or One Drive or WeTransfer and then just provide the link in your reply.
  • You can close any open windows you have as well as the RegBak program now.
 
Attach the file C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CbsPersist_20211215221936.cab to your next reply.

Unfortunatelly, the requested Cabinet-File "CbsPersist_20220124093712.cab" is not available anymore aswell:
